BACKGROUND: Previous end-of-life cancer research has shown an association between increased family physician continuity of care and reduced use of acute care services; however, it did not focus on a homecare population or control for homecare nursing. AIM: Among end-of-life homecare cancer patients, to investigate the association of family physician continuity with location of death and hospital and emergency department visits in the last 2 weeks of life while controlling for nursing hours. DESIGN: Retrospective population-based cohort study. SETTING/PARTICIPANTS: Cancer patients with ≥ 1 family physician visit in 2006 from Ontario, Canada. Family physician continuity of care was assessed using two measures: Modified Usual Provider of Care score and visits/week. Its association with location of death and hospital and emergency department visits in the last 2 weeks of life was examined using logistic regression. RESULTS: Of 9467 patients identified, the Modified Usual Provider of Care score demonstrated a dose-response relationship with increasing continuity associated with decreased odds of hospital death and visiting the hospital and emergency department in the last 2 weeks of life. More family physician visits/week were associated with lower odds of an emergency department visit in the last 2 weeks of life and hospital death, except for patients with greater than 4 visits/week, where they had increased odds of hospitalizations and hospital deaths. CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate an association between increased family physician continuity of care and decreased odds of several acute care outcomes in late life, controlling for homecare nursing and other covariates. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,752 |
La Cavallerizza Alessandro Bettoni è fra le più antiche società sportive equestri italiane. Insignita dal Presidente della Repubblica della stella d'oro, ha contribuito alla formazione di numerose generazioni di cavalieri.
Fondazione
L'istituzione di una scuola di equitazione nella Città di Brescia risale al secolo XVII ma, sembra, con carattere puramente privato.
Nel 1797 alcuni"nobili cittadini" si rivolgono ai deputati pubblici ed ottengono l'uso del locale in Fiera detto "Il ballo di corda" per istituirvi una scuola di Cavallerizza.
Caduto il dominio veneto, il "Governo provvisorio" del "Sovrano popolo bresciano" decreta la soppressione delle corporazioni religiose e l'incameramento dei loro beni, destinando questi ultimi a vantaggio dell'istruzione. Con decreto 3 novembre 1797, si ordina l'istituzione di una Scuola di Maneggio unita a quella Veterinaria e le si assegnano 7.000 lire venete per il mantenimento, aumentate successivamente di 3.000 lire venete annue, indicando e precisando poi le fonti dalle quali doveva essere tratta la rendita stessa (soppressione congregazioni).
II Consiglio Comunale con delibera 19 marzo 1806 confermava che i "redditi" continuassero ad essere erogati a favore della scuola. Nel 1812 viene nominata una commissione incaricata dell'amministrazione, riservandosi l'approvazione dei bilanci annuali.
Nel 1845 la scuola di maneggio viene trasferita nella ex chiesa di S. Antonio Abate, in via Cairoli, la cui navata, durante guerre e occupazioni militari fu destinata a deposito di fieno e legna. La Chiesa aveva infatti subito precedentemente più incendi, il primo nel Cinquecento e l'ultimo nel 1837, ed è per questo motivo che nel 1845, su disegno dell'architetto Luigi Donegani, viene deciso di trasformarla in Cavallerizza. Sempre nello stesso anno avvenne una permuta fra il Comune e l'Amministrazione Spedali Civili, fra i locali della scuola e S. Domenico. Al Comune passò la suddetta ex chiesa di S. Antonio, sede della scuola. Negli anni successivi vennero effettuate opere di rimaneggiamento che hanno messo in luce una originaria fattura tardo-gotica della Chiesa.
Storia recente
Nella primavera del 1945, alla rinuncia comunale, un gruppo di appassionati rispose dando vita alla Società Cavallerizza.
Nell'aprile del '46, al presidente dell'Associazione, conte Alessandro Bettoni, il Comune di Brescia dava in dotazione la conduzione della scuola comunale di equitazione.
Nel '47 alla società si unisce un altro sodalizio ippico cittadino: la Società Bresciana dei percorsi a cavallo.
La Cavallerizza occupa i locali di via Cairoli sino al 1967, fino a quando le continue richieste dell'Ufficio di Igiene cittadino, che non gradiva la presenza dei cavalli nel centro della città, costringono la scuola a cercare una sede idonea. La soluzione viene individuata nella cascina Chiappa di Sant'Eufemia in dotazione al Comune per lascito, luogo nel quale la Cavallerizza si trova tuttora.
Negli ultimi anni la società ha dato vita a nuove iniziative, tra cui l'area protetta denominata Ponyland a favore di bambini e disabili.
Premi
Il 23 ottobre 2006 la Cavallerizza è stata insignita del Collare d'Oro, onorificenza speciale per Meriti Sportivi, alla presenza del Presidente del Consiglio Romano Prodi e di altre illustri personalità.

Jamie Morgan (Jim Sturgess) is a nice young man, although he tends to hide himself away in his mother's flat due to a number of unsightly birthmarks, including a heart-shaped one that covers half his face. He loves photography – something he inherited from his late father (Timothy Spall) – and works in a studio with his brother Raymond (Justin Salinger). He lives in a bad part of the city, but just as his world is rocked by a horrific act of violence, a mysterious phone call leads him to "Papa B" (Joseph Mawle), who offers him good looks in return for a few small acts of chaos. Jamie accepts, and is soon makes the acquaintance of two new people: Tia (Clmence Posy), a pretty girl who had come to the studio for glamor shots but is far more comfortable dressed down, and "The Weapons Man" (Eddie Marsan), who will give him the unpleasant truth about just what he's agreed to.
The opening scenes of Heartless are an excellent mix of the tense and matter-of-fact, communicating both the fear generated in living in an area where violence is an all-too-frequent occurrence and the need to live an everyday life. The world seems to get darker and darker, slowly closing in on Jamie and the viewer audience until the outdoors feels more claustrophobic than the inside. Writer/director Philip Ridley wastes little time here: We are quickly able to understand the city's malaise in purely human terms, but a supernatural element is also introduced fairly quickly. It's a nifty combination of cinematography and effects work, too – I spent a few moments admiring how the filmmakers were making something conventional look demonic in the shadows before it jumped out as an actual demon.
Throughout the movie, Ridley finds a number of unique ways to creep the audience out. Jamie's initial meeting with Papa B is filled with tension, and also features one of the best uses of mobile phones in a horror movie. Eddie Marsan has a blackly comic scene with Sturgess that explicitly comments on this, actually – we often see the forces of evil shun modernity, but Heartless has them fully integrated into the modern connected world. And then there's little Nikita Mistry as a girl who, despite her connection to Papa B, seems good, but becomes quite scary even if she seems more driven by desperation than malice.
The movie lightens up in the middle, but never completely. The scenes between Sturgess and Posy are uplifting and joyful, a fantastic respite from the previous air of misery. Both are enormously charming, and the feeling of liberation that initially comes over Jamie is one that spreads to the audience. It's a delightful, pure love, one that brightens up the screen even as it is intercut with more horrific images, and even as those two threads merge.
And merge they must – though the devil can give you everything you want, he doesn't do it for free. The way Ridley brings his stories to a head is jarring at times, and maybe involves a trick or two that the film often seemed to be above, but it has a dark beauty as it appears on screen. The film shines that way; Ridley and company have given great attention to each piece, from the perfect lighting to the songs that Ridley co-wrote. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,755 |
At the Pan American Games Edmundo Warnke finished fourth in the 5,000 metres in 1971 and sixth in the 5K and 10K in 1975. In 1979 he finished fifth in the Pan Am marathon. At the 1972 München Olympics Warnke was eliminated in the heats of the 5,000 metres and four years later also went out in the heats of the 5K and 10K. Warnke lived and trained in Germany for several years and participated in West German championships in the 1970s, earning four national titles over different distances in cross-country races.

On Lyft's long-awaited first day of public trading, share prices rose 21% before closing the day up 8.7%.
But as Lyft's leaders sipped champagne, its drivers were on strike and its newest investors were already losing money. Despite investor optimism, Lyft (like Uber) still doesn't make a profit (they lost $911m last year) or pay drivers a living wage.
Lyft went public at a price of $72 per share (far higher than its initial range), and share prices rose as high as $87/share before ending the day at $78/share.
After raising $2.34B, Lyft hit a valuation of $26.4B (still only ¼ the projected size of Uber).
Early Lyft employees earned so much in shares and stock ($1.3B) they could buy every one of the 624 houses on the market in San Francisco and still have $300m left for housewarming parties.
Early institutional investors like Founder's Fund, Andreessen Horowitz, and Google also made billions, but average-Joe investors who bought at the IPO's oversubscribed opening lost 11% on day 1.
In Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego, Lyft drivers — who often make just $10 per hour, less than California's minimum wage — protested the misleading tactics Lyft uses to keep low-paid drivers at the wheel.
This IPO was no exception: Lyft offered its drivers IPO stock, but only in exchange for 20k rides — AKA never missing a day of work and completing 15.4 rides a day for 5 whole years (so much for that "flexible schedule" hype).
Now that Lyft is public, pressure to cut costs will increase, which could lead to even lower earnings for drivers down the road. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,759 |

Eminent domain's "greater good" clashes with sacred cultural practices
Asked what the "greater good" means to him, Wilbur Slockish provides a distinctively different perspective than centuries of U.S. and European eminent domain laws and practices: "Greater good means honor the animals. Let them rest, let them refill, let them build up the environment." For thousands of years there was a tangible and practical connection between Native Americans and Columbia River Salmon. Slockish makes this connection between salmon and sustenance of the Native American community:
"There were a lot of fish in there that were harvestable there for our use. That was our main diet. And we didn't waste any of it. We ate the heads, the fins, the tails. I really liked the tails. There's too much oil in the belly, that's where all the oil was concentrated. They took away our vitamin source, what kept us healthy all these years."
However Native American connections to salmon goes beyond an economic one. Over thousands of years, salmon have been part of sacred connections to the river, the land, and the environment. In 1915 a leader of the Yakama Tribe explains this sacred connection: "My strength is from the fish; my blood is from the fish, from the roots and berries. The fish and game are the essence of my life. I was not brought from a foreign country and did not come here. I was put here by the Creator."[1]
Every year as far back as memories and traditional stories can record, an annual First Salmon Ceremony has taken place in the Celilo area. Antone Minthorn of the Umatilla Tribe describes this sacred event:
"The importance of the first salmon ceremony has to do with the celebration of life, of the salmon as subsistence, meaning that the Indians depend upon the salmon for their living. And the annual celebration is just that - it's an appreciation that the salmon are coming back. It is again the natural law; the cycle of life. It's the way things are and if there was no water, there would be no salmon, there would be no cycle, no food. And the Indian people respect it accordingly.[2]"
Source: Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission[3]
In her book, Death of Celilo Falls, Katrine Barber argues that the Army Corps of Engineers failed to take the loss of sacred fishing grounds into consideration when making calculations for monetary compensation for the tribes. It was easier to calculate the market value of fish than it was the sacred value of thousands of years of spiritual connections to the natural environment. Barber writes,
"Corps employees neglected the cultural costs of their project, a strategy that made it simpler for the government to determine a figure for compensation by reducing the value of the falls to the number of fish caught. By not incorporating the spiritual value of the site into a compensation package, however, the Army Corps left open whether its settlement was equal to the spiritual value of the falls.[4]"

Been tough wrangling these guys through heat treatment and plating, but finally have them back...Yea!
Each year I try to give a little back to the community that has brought me such enjoyment. I was pleased to have Steve and Kirsten Hollingsworth in the shop with me this week.
Look for more in the coming days...my uploader is worn out for today.
As a person who does repairs of carbon frames everyday, I can appreciate how much work that is. Nice job! Do you charge in cases like this?
In this case, the customer has 4 of my bikes and one more scheduled on the build list, so this repair was completed at my expense. The time invested is well worth the good will it builds in the relationship.
"Man, I heard you broke your Groovy."
"Yeah, but Rody totally took care of it, I should have it back before the weekend."
"Cool, when I broke my Trek the shop said I voided the warranty when I put those Specialized grips on it. So I'm bikeless right now."
Keep it rollin' Rody, see you soon. I'll check on some of your links this after dark.

Shrine Plans Museum renovation and New Visitor Center to Enhance Story of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
Although she died 201 years ago, devotees of America's first native-born saint believe she can be a great role model for these troubled times.
That's one of the main reasons behind the $4 million investment to renovate the museum and build a new visitors center at the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton in Emmitsburg.
The year-long construction project is scheduled to begin this fall with the goal of enhancing the experience for pilgrims who want to learn more about St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.
The shrine held a ceremonial groundbreaking June 24. When it's completed in late summer of 2023, the museum will include state-of-the-art galleries with interactive exhibits telling St. Elizabeth Ann's story from childhood to sainthood.
It will be the first significant renovation of the museum in 40 years in a town where Mother Seton established the first American congregation of religious sisters, the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph in 1809.
Rob Judge, the shrine's executive director for the past decade, said the mission of the upgrades to the visitors' experiences is to shine a brighter light on Mother Seton. He said there were a lot of artifacts that the current museum didn't have space to display, and others that were recently donated.
"We want to use those artifacts to tell Mother Seton's story," said Judge, a parishioner of St. Mary in Hagerstown. "The mission is to share her life with more people; why she did what she did and why she is a role model and intercessor; someone who inspires people."
Judge said new exhibits on her marriage and life as a mother of five will better tell the stories about her passion for religious life and her devotion to the Eucharist.
The PRD Group of Chantilly, Va., which recently did work on the Gettysburg Seminary Ridge Museum, helped with design plans.
The national shrine is an active basilica and includes historical buildings and programs that show what life was like when Mother Seton lived there more than two centuries ago.
The plans call for a reconfiguration of the original provincial entrance into a new visitor center for the estimated 60,000 people who come to the shrine each year. The shrine's campus allows visitors to worship in a basilica, while also touring the grounds and buildings where Mother Seton and her congregation lived.
Mother Seton's legacy includes several religious communities with thousands of sisters, who serve others through schools, social service centers and hospitals throughout the world. She was canonized in 1975 and her remains are entombed at the shrine.
The sisters following her mission are delighted to see their patron's legacy enhanced.
"Our sisters are very excited," said Sister Mary Catherine Norris, provincial of the Daughters of Charity, province of St. Louise and a member of the shrine's board of directors. "They're excited to have the space utilized in such a way that they will see the pilgrims coming and going and have opportunities to interact with people, which we think will be lovely.
"I think they'll add another element of welcome to people who are coming. They're happy to have folks come and share in the legacy of Mother Seton."
Visitors will be able to see the bonnet St. Elizabeth Ann wore after establishing the community and the dancing slippers she wore as a girl as well as her daughter's christening gown.
"Since the past is this big, distant thing, it doesn't always feel real," said Scott Keefer, archivist for the Daughters of Charity, St. Louise province, who is based at the shrine. "To correct that, to show that this was a real person, that's a big hurdle to overcome. Hopefully this museum will help."
Leaders with both the Sisters of Charity and the Daughters of Charity think the museum will be an essential part of introducing Mother Seton to new audiences who are looking for a saint to whom they can relate.
"We've been talking for a while now about the awareness of Elizabeth Seton as saint for our time," said Sister Donna Geernaert of the Sisters of Charity Halifax and chair of the Seton Shrine board. "Thinking about the era in which she lived and the role of women in that time, Elizabeth really stands out as a strong woman.
"There is nothing like looking at Elizabeth's dancing slippers to realize she was a person who loved life. More and more today we need to speak to the love of life and her commitment to faith and the care of her family and friends."
The enhanced exhibit will help her continue to serve as a great role model.
"Her struggles are just as relevant today as they were 200 years ago," said Sister Mary Catherine. "The legacy of Mother Seton is she was fearless at a time when women weren't exactly known for that. She's a great role model whether you're a mother, an educator, a daughter or a widow."
Funding for the renovations is coming from the "New Century of Charity" capital campaign that was launched in September as part of a commemoration of the 200th anniversary of Mother Seton's death. The initial fundraising began nearly three years ago and the campaign has received more than 1,300 gifts and raised more than $10 million.
After the renovations, the remaining funds will be used for the shrine's charitable endeavors and retreat programs.

TV Films of the Week
By Nick Norton
Film of the week: Shaun Of The Dead, ITV2, Sunday April 21, 9pm
On April 13, 2001, a whole generation of post-modern TV fans wept at the passing of Spaced, the sublime sitcom written by and starring Simon Pegg and Jessica Stevenson. Where else would they find a show that sampled the very best of western pop culture, presented so innovatively by director Edgar Wright and accompanied by belly-aching humour of waiter-turned comic actor Nick Frost? The answer, of course, came three years later when the gang, minus Stevenson, jumped across onto the big screen in Shaun Of The Dead.
In doing so, there must have been a temptation to forget what made Spaced so unique and instead produce something more palatable for Hollywood's global audience. The real genius of Shaun Of The Dead is that it resisted that temptation so categorically. Instead, Pegg and Wright took the tropes of George Romero's classic zombie films and made them about as British as it's possible to be.
Romero's small town American settings became suburban England, his refuges of malls and military bases traded places for the local pub and his survivors' weapons of pistols and machine guns were substituted for cricket bats and golf clubs. But the formula didn't just make it a hit in the UK – Quentin Tarantino named Shaun Of The Dead as one of the top 20 films made since he began his directorial career. If you have already seen it, try playing 'spot the celebrity zombie' with comedian Rob Brydon and Coldplay's Chris Martin there for the eagle-eyed to find amongst the undead hordes.

Blue Valentine, Film4, Tuesday April 16, 11:20pm
With the Bradley Cooper/Ryan Gosling-fronted The Place Beyond The Pines currently enjoying success at the box office, Film4 give us the chance to revisit director Derek Cianfrance's first release. Switching back and forth between moments past and present, it stars Gosling and Michelle Williams as a couple whose relationship is reaching its end. Frank and unflinchingly powerful, it's probably best avoided if you are experiencing similar spousal problems.
24 Hour Party People, Film4, Thursday April 18, 11:30pm
There is now less than a fortnight until The Look Of Love, which teams Steve Coogan together with director Michael Winterbottom once again, hits cinemas, so what better time to remind ourselves how much fun their partnership can be. Like The Look Of Love, 24 Hour People is a biopic, portraying the life of Factory Records' co-founder Tony Wilson. A celebration of the great music this apparently chaotic label produced (from the likes of Joy Division, New Order and the Happy Mondays), it offers laughs and pathos in equal measure.
Last Of The Mohicans, 5USA, Saturday April 20, 10:45pm
Having so utterly convinced us all as the definitive Abraham Lincoln, Daniel Day-Lewis is no less intense as an adopted Mohican warrior battling the French in Michael Mann's historical epic. Given that he prepared for the role by spending six months skinning animals, building canoes and fighting with tomahawks, this comes as little surprise. If the last ten minutes don't set your heart beating, then you are probably best advised booking an appointment with the nearest cardiologist, post haste.

Focul bacterian sau ciuma de foc este o care afectează merii, perii și alți membri ai familiei rozacee. Este o preocupare serioasă pentru producătorii de mere și pere. În condiții optime, boala poate distruge o livadă întreagă într-un singur sezon de creștere.
Patogenul cauzal este Erwinia amylovora, o bacterie Gram-negativă din familia Enterobacteriaceae. Perii sunt cei mai sensibili, dar merii, moșmonul japonez, gutuii, zmeura și alte plante rozacee sunt, de asemenea, vulnerabile. Boala este considerată a fi indigenă din America de Nord, de unde s-a răspândit în cele mai multe părți din restul lumii.

Q: Postulate of a priori probability and harmonic oscillator According to the fundamental postulate of a priori probability in Statistical Mechanics:
An isolated system in equilibrium is equally likely to be in any of its accessible states.
But for a classical harmonic oscillator with constant energy, Aren't the states around the extremum of position variable more likely than other states?
A: There are a few finer details that one has to keep in mind here:
*
*A single harmonic oscillator is really not a thermodynamic system, so the postulate doesn't apply to it.
*All accessible states in case of a constant energy (i.e., when using a microcanonical ensemble) means all the possible states with the same energy. For a single oscillator there is only one such state. Of course, one cannot apply statistical description to a single state (statistics is the more precise, the more states we have, ideally of the order of Avogadro constant $N_A=10^{23}$) - hence point 1 above.
*Finally, one could apply statistical description to an ensemble of oscillators. In fact, it is very instructive to consider a number of possible states with the same total energy for two oscillators, three oscillators, and so on. This exercise is a good entry point to understannding statistical physics, although most textbooks prefer to consider as an example ensembles of spin-1/2 particles.
Update
For a classical oscillator it is possible to consider that all the states on the constant energy ellipse in the phase space have the same energy. However, since the oscillator by itself does not form a thermodynamic system (it has only one degree of freedom), you will have to assume some averaging mechanism - e.g., that it is coupled to a bath (i.e., it is a part of a bigger thermodynamic system) or that you have some kind of time averaging or initial conditions randomization.
In this sense, the states near the points of the maximum amplitude are not more probable than other states with the same energy. However, the oscillator moves slower near these states, so, if you are more likely observe it near this points. This is a good example that averaging in time and statistical averaging are not always the same thing, i.e., for a single oscillator we cannot assume ergodicity, which is the essential assumption (or the other form) of the postulate in the original question.
A:
Aren't the states around the extremum of position variable more likely than other states?
I think your confusion is with microstate and macrostate. The fundamental postulate of equilibrium statistical mechanics says :
In a state of thermal equilibrium, all the accessible microstates of the system are equally probable.
Microscopic quantity refers to the individual degree of freedom as opposed to averages. Now that let us suppose that system has a fixed energy $E$. Then you can ask, Is the state in which all the energy possessed by one particle is equally probable to other states? The answer is Yes!.
Now suppose a system a simple probability example: A coin
Now If you have a coin, then possible microstates are $H$ and $T$. For two coins: $ \{HH,TT,HT,TH\}$. If you define a random variable $X$ which define as the number of heads then You can see this can take value $0,1,2$. The probability for this to take $1$ is greater ($1/2$) than the other ($1/4$). That's exactly what happens here. If you take a large number of coins then you get a probability distribution what is called a binomial distribution and Probability for $X=N/2$ will be higher than the other. Even though each microstate is equally probable.
The same thing happens in the case, You are talking about.
A: "around the extremum position variable" is not a state. It is a description of behaviour within a state.
A pendulum may be oscillating with a small amplitude or a large amplitude. Statistical Mechanics makes a statement about the relative probability of these two cases. For either case the pendulum spends more time near the edges where it's moving slowly than in the centre which it moves past quickly. There's no conflict between these statements.

Where Good Ideas Come From The Natural History Of Innovation also available in docx and mobi. Read Where Good Ideas Come From The Natural History Of Innovation online, read in mobile or Kindle.
Where do good ideas come from? And what do we need to know and do to have more of them? In Where Good Ideas Come From, Steven Johnson, one of our most innovative popular thinkers, explores the secrets of inspiration. Steven Johnson has spent twenty years immersed in creative industries, was active at the dawn of the internet and has a unique perspective that draws on his fluency in fields ranging from neurobiology to new media. Why have cities historically been such hubs of innovation? What do the printing press and Apple have in common? And what does this have to do with the creation and evolution of life itself? Johnson presents the answers to these questions and more in his infectious, culturally omnivoracious style, using examples from thinkers in a range of disciplines - from Charles Darwin to Tim Berners-Lee - to provide the complete, exciting, and encouraging story of inspiration. He identifies the five key principles to the genesis of great ideas, from the cultivation of hunches to the importance of connectivity and how best to make use of new technologies. Most exhilarating is his conclusion: with today's tools and environment, radical innovation is extraordinarily accessible to those who know how to cultivate it. By recognizing where and how patterns of creativity occur - whether within a school, a software platform or a social movement - he shows how we can make more of our ideas good ones.
Look out for Johnson's new book, Wonderland, now on sale. Steven Johnson, author of Where Good Ideas Come From, Emergence, Everything Bad is Good for You, Mind Wide Open and Ghost Map, and an acknowledged bestselling leader on the subject of innovation, gathers - for a foundational text on the subject of innovation - essays, interviews, and cutting-edge insights by such exciting field leaders as Peter Drucker, Richard Florida, Eric Von Hippel, Dean Keith Simonton, Arthur Koestler, John Seely Brown, and Marshall Berman. Johnson also provides new material from Marisa Mayer of Google, Twitter's Biz Stone and Jack Dorsey, and Ray Ozzie, Microsoft's former Chief Software Architect. With additional commentary by Johnson himself, this book reveals the innovation found in a wide range of fields, including science, technology, energy, transportation, education, art, and sociology, making it vital, fresh, and fascinating reading for our time, and for the future.
From Steven Johnson, the bestselling author of Where Good Ideas Come From, comes How We Got to Now, the companion book to his six-part BBC One television series exploring the power and the legacy of great ideas. How did photography bring about social reform? What connects refrigeration to Hollywood? And how did our battle against dirt help create smartphones? In this story of ingenious breakthroughs and unsung heroes, Steven Johnson explores the essential innovations that changed the world and how we live in it. 'A new Steven Johnson book is something not to be missed. The author has become the leading writer on how inventions happen' Daniel Finkelstein, The Times, Books of the Year 'Graceful and compelling ... you'll find yourself exhilarated' The New York Times Book Review 'Readable, entertaining, and a challenge to any jaded sensibility that has become inured to the everyday miracles all around us' Peter Forbes, Guardian'This nimble history of invention . . .is a many-layered delight' Nature Steven Johnson is the US bestselling author of Where Good Ideas Come From, The Invention of Air, The Ghost Map, and Everything Bad Is Good for You, and is the editor of the anthology The Innovator's Cookbook. He is the founder of a variety of influential websites - most recently, outside.in - and writes for Time, Wired, The New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.
You have a great idea, now what? That first mile—where an innovation moves from an idea on paper to the market—is often plagued by failure. In fact, less than one percent of ideas launched by big companies end up having real impact. The ideas aren't the problem. It's the process. The First Mile focuses on the critical moment when an innovator moves from planning to reality. It is a perilous place where hidden traps snare entrepreneurs and roadblocks slow innovators inside large companies. In this practical and enlightening manual, strategic adviser Scott Anthony equips innovators with new tools, questions, and examples to speed through this crucial early stage of innovation. You'll learn: • How to evaluate your idea's strengths and weaknesses using the "DEFT" process—Document, Evaluate, Focus, and Test • Fourteen recipes from an "experiment cookbook" to gain confidence in your idea or business • Why "spinouts," "wrong turns," and other challenges commonly trip up innovation—and the practical strategies you can use to avoid them • Why innovators need to seek chaos in an age of constant change—and other essential leadership skills Drawing on his decade of experience as an innovation adviser and investor, Anthony describes hard-won lessons from disruptive start-ups and global giants alike. The First Mile will give you the knowledge and confidence to travel this perilous—but ultimately promising—terrain. The first mile can be a scary place, but you don't have to traverse it alone. This book can help. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,774 |
On Saturday 16 April, friends and family of John Palmer turned out in force to take part in a 100 bird sporting clay competition to celebrate John's life and raise money in his memory. John, who was a keen shooter and loved the sport, sadly lost his battle with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia in August 2015.
John's daughter Leanne Powell organised the competition and friends and family from all over the country joined them at Grange Farm Sporting Clays in Leicestershire to battle it out for the best of 100 shots. The winner scored an impressive 95 out of 100.
Dale Neal from BBC Radio Leicester even turned up and reported live from the ground, with Leanne and myself giving interviews about the reasons behind the event and Bloodwise respectively. I was proud to be part of the day and it was clear how loved, respected and missed John is by all his family and peers.
A fantastic total of £3,097.40 has so far been raised from the competition, generated from the entry fees, a raffle, a cake sale and the generosity of the ground who donated the takings from the refreshments sold on the day and also the referees who donated their fees.
Thank you so much and congratulations to Leanne, John's wife Pat and everyone involved in making the day such a success. Together we will beat blood cancer. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,775 |

The History of the Mini…
"Pass me that spanner would you please?" Asked Vi's disembodied voice from under the battered Mini. "And you may want to stand back a bit."
I did as she asked, then moved back a few feet.
"Further!"
I stepped back a few feet more.
" Little further!!"
Finally she pulled herself out from under the car.
"What are you doing all the way over there?"
"You told be to step back, then said 'further'. Twice"
"Oh, sorry, the 'further' was me talking to myself about how far to tighten the nuts. She's fixed now.
"How did she get into this state?"
"A little run in with an anti-war protest. I was there to see Jimi Hendrix, nearly got myself stuck there. Could have been nasty."
"And there's no time for me to fix her up properly?"
"No, I've got a job on that's pretty urgent."
"So you're an actual witness? That must be exciting. We don't get many of you guys down here."
"Yes, that's me."
"Well, you know the old philosophical question, 'if a tree falls in the woods and no-one's there to hear it, does it make a noise?'"
"I'm there to hear it. For centuries archaeologists and historians argued about what actually happened in history, and in some cases whether anything happened. My job is to go and find out."
"Not if I stay on script and don't get caught up the action."
"So where are you off to now?"
"A minor war in Europe 5th Century by the modern calendar. I'm commissioned to witness the death of a minor noble who otherwise may have unified most of the Germanic world."
"And you just turn up and seen him die?"
"Pretty much, a quick in and out."
"Ok, I'll just test run her for you and then you'll be off."
"I'm in a hurry. How long does the test run take?"
"Half an hour real time, maybe a bit longer."
"Look, tell the truth, I stayed in 1970 a bit longer that I should have done. I went early to see Hendrix play before he died and kinda got sidetracked. Can I take her without a test?"
"No. But I can come to 5th Century Europe?"
"It's strictly against the rules you know."
"So's taking an untested machine. First she goes back and forth on auto, then I take a ride, then you get her back. But, I've always wanted to see history. Real history. We're only allowed to test drive these things to certain times, and even then we're not allowed to stop. So there's a deal there if you want it?"
"Ok, hop in."
I fiddled with the controls and set the trip computer for the correct time and place.
"Buckle up, we'll be there before you know it!"
The first sign of a problem was when the year counter started to accelerate. The second sign was the noise. By the time the stars started accelerating past us towards a spot light years into the distance I knew that we were beyond control.
Vi looked across and shouted "Even I know this is not normal – what's happening?"
"As far as I can tell the trip computer's failed and we're accelerating into the past."
"At least it's not something I fixed then!" Vi screamed. "What's that?" She pointed ahead at the ever growing point of light.
"We're heading into the 'big bang'. Backwards!"
"Well, my philosophy on life was that I wanted to go out with a bang!" Vi laughed manically.
We both blacked out.
"Where are we?" Vi asked after we had both come round.
"I think the question is, 'when are we?'"
"Is anything working on the time machine?"
"All the dials read '0'. But then, if we're before the big bang, they would. The life support must still be working, otherwise I think we're nowhere and nowhen."
There was an explosion. The battered Mini flew at an enormous rate out from the pinpoint of light.
"How far into the future do we need to go for you to be able to fix this?" I asked Vi.
"A few tens of millions of years…"
"Oh well, by the time we get there you'll have witnessed a lot of history. Might as well sit back and enjoy the ride!"
Author's note. This is not a 'fan fiction' but there is more than a touch of 'Dr Who' and more than a touch of Connie Willis' 'Blackout' in the inspiration for this story. I am indebted to both.

Q: Initializing jQuery.load'ed elements I'm loading part of my webpage using AJAX, in particular jQuery.load(). With this the usual jQuery pattern
$('.classname').click(...) // Handler
// or, working with bootstrap
$("a[rel=tooltip]").tooltip() // Function
or similar obviously don't work any more, because they are called only when the page is loaded. I realize there is jQuery.on for the first example, but how would I implement the second?
Is there a simple (builtin) way to also apply these to jQuery.loaded stuff, or do I have to work around it myself? Seems like a problem a lot of people should be having.
A: You have to work around it yourself; but you can easily to this by calling $("a[rel=tooltip]").tooltip() in the callback for load():
$('#blah').load('/somewhere.html', function () {
$('#blah').find('a[rel="tooltip"]').tooltip();
});
Be sure to restrict the tooltip() call to only newly loaded elements, or you'll end up initializing tooltip multiple times per element (which may result in weird behaviour).
To avoid duplicating code you just need to define a helper function;
function initTooltip(root) {
return $(root || document).find('a[rel="tooltip"]').tooltip();
}
Which allows you to init tooltip. The parameter is optional, and lets you restrict initialization to only descendants of the provided element, e.g.:
jQuery(document).ready(function ($) {
initTooltip(); // equivilant to initTooltip(document);
$('#blah').load('/somewhere.html', function () {
initTooltip('#blah');
});
});

I'm looking to get a .22 caliber air rifle. What are some of the best for getting some bigger game like coyotes, hogs, and turkey?
You'll want to go .25 at a minimum and and you'll want to go PCP. Consider the new Hatsan Carnivore in .30 or .35 cal. Good shot count, great accuracy, and plenty of power. If you are wanting to stay with a spring or gas ram gun, then you need to have reasonable expectations on what game you can take. Turkey is ok.. but the other animals you mention need more power for a clean kill.

On-the-Go Businesses Get Payments App
Amberly Dressler
From designers, to consultants, to IT professionals and beyond, there are plenty of businesses that operate outside of traditional retail storefronts or digital presences. In fact, the U.S. Census says that 17 million small businesses fit this profile.
Thus, there are 17 million reasons to create an app that accepts credit card payments from an iPhone. Flint Mobile, Inc. announced today that its iPhone payments app, Flint Mobile Pay, is now generally available nationwide on the App Store.
Flint built an app specifically built to this audience and is designed to provide three core advantages:
1) Easy credit and debit card processing by scanning the card number instead of needing a card reader accessory
2) Integrated social marketing
3) Customizable business tools to increase customer engagement
Founded in 2011, Flint has spent the last 18 months building its platform. The company states that it has integrated with top-tier financial services and infrastructure companies to offer a reliable, secure and scalable product.
"Flint's mission is to empower everyday small business users who are out and about and who are underserved by other solutions," said Greg Goldfarb, co-founder and CEO of Flint Mobile. "We've worked very closely with our beta users to develop a compelling app and are excited to make it available to a broader audience."
The app is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iOS 5.0 or above. Other highlights of the app include online reporting (for viewing and managing transactions, customer contact info, etc.), low fees (1.95 percent plus $0.20 per transaction for debit cards and 2.95 percent plus $0.20 per transaction for credit cards) and more. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaCommonCrawl'} | 8,779 |
A strong and functional core goes much deeper than a set of 6 pack abs. Training the core involves learning to properly recruit all the muscles that support and stabilize the trunk, and even the upper back. In fact, we like to think of the core as extending from mid-thigh all the way to the thoracic spine (upper back).
If you can't use your core effectively, you don't have a stable base to transfer force from upper to lower body or from one side of the body to the other. But beyond the crucial role of stabilization, the core is also one of our main sources of strength and power.
Everything from carrying your toddler to jumping high enough to dunk a basketball to throwing an opponent in wrestling depends on your ability to recruit your glutes and snap your hips. Unfortunately, since we spend so much time sitting for work, commutes and even leisure time, we often "lose" that essential hip snap skill.
There are many ways to reprogram your hip snap. But once you have the glutes firing again, one of our favourite exercises for reintegrating the movement with other important core functions is the Spinal Rock butterfly. It incorporates proper breathing and activation of the abdominal muscles with the all important hip snap.
There you have it, the Spinal Rock Butterfly.
Any spinal rock exercise I've done under CST has been a blessing especially in terms of making my back stronger. I just did a few reps of this exercise and it's a killer! Thanks.
Spinal rocks have saved both my back and my clients, and has improved my Degrees of Freedom in thoracic spine. Its like getting a free adjustment. Great thing to do in the morning. Thank you Coach Steer.

Most dumpster rental businesses in Santa Paula normally rent containers for a regular speed for 7 days, although most one time customers end up keeping their container an average of three and a half days. When you phone to allow the container, talk with the customer support representative about the period of time you believe you'll need.
If it turns out that your job takes longer than you anticipated, merely call the dumpster company to explain. Most businesses will bill you on a per-day basis following your initial seven days. It's very important to communicate this additional need when you understand you have it since most dumpster firms have a limited variety of bins that may already be allowed. Most businesses will work with you to accommodate your extra rental time. In case you believe you will want the dumpster for an extra week or more, make sure to mention that; rates may change based on a longer time period.
When you need to rent a dumpster in Santa Paula to use at your house, it is a good idea to keep several guidelines in mind. First, ascertain the size dumpster that will work best for your project. Temporary dumpsters usually come in 10, 20, 30 and 40 yard sizes. Then consider the placement of the dumpster on your property. Recommendations call for you to provide a space that is twice the width and height of the container. This will ensure proper height and space clearance.
The price you're quoted for the container will have a one-time delivery and pick-up fee, along with normal fees for disposal, fuel and tax. You must also realize you could only fill the container to the top; no debris should be sticking out. As the homeowner, you need to also check with your local city or municipality to find out if a permit is required to put the container on the street.
2. Give you and also the rental company plenty of time. It is better to phone ahead at least a week or two before you need the dumpster. Should you try to schedule an appointment sooner than that, you may have a small collection.
3. Keep in touch with the rental company. If anything changes in your program, contact the company when possible to permit them to know. That way, you can adjust the appointment as needed without restricting your choices.
Most cities or municipalities don't have many regulations regarding dumpster rental in Santa Paula as long as you keep the dumpster entirely on your own property during the rental period. In the event you need to put your container on the street at all, you'll likely have to get a permit from the correct building permit office in your town.
Most dumpster rental businesses in Santa Paula will take care of procuring this permit for you if you rent from them. Ensure that in case you're planning to set the dumpster on the street, the organization has made the proper arrangements. You must also guarantee that you get the permit in a timely manner and at the correct price. In the event you believed the dumpster company was getting a permit and they did not, you'll be the one who will need to pay the fine that's issued by the authorities.
Front -load and roll-off dumpsters have different layouts that make them useful in different manners. Understanding more about them will help you select an option that's right for your job.
Front-load dumpsters have mechanical arms that could lift heavy things. This really is a convenient option for projects that include a lot of heavy items like appliances and concrete. In addition , they are great for emptying commercial dumpsters like the kind restaurants use.
Rolloff dumpsters are typically the right option for commercial and residential projects like fixing a roof, remodeling a cellar, or adding a room to your home. They have doors that swing open, allowing you to walk into the dumpster. Additionally they have open tops that let you throw debris into the container. Rental businesses will commonly leave a roll-off dumpster at your job location for a number of days or weeks. This really is a convenient option for both small and big projects.

Although local governments generally provide waste disposal services, very few of them are going to haul away construction debris. This makes it important for individuals to rent dumpsters for them to dispose of waste during construction jobs.
The most common exception to this rule is when you have a truck that's big enough to transport all construction debris to a landfill or landfill drop off point. If you're working on a small bathroom remodeling project, for example, you might find that you could fit all the debris in a truck bed.
Other than quite small projects, it is recommended that you rent a dumpster in Santa Paula for construction projects.
If you're not certain whether your municipality accepts construction debris, contact the city for more advice. You'll likely find that you will have to rent a dumpster in Santa Paula. Placing debris outside for garbage removal could potentially result in fines.
If you are looking to rent a dumpster in Santa Paula, one of your primary concerns is going to be cost. There are generally two pricing options available when renting a dumpster in Santa Paula. Flat rate is pricing dependent on the size of the dumpster, not the amount of material you place in it. Per ton pricing will bill you based on the weight you need hauled.
One sort of pricing structure isn't necessarily more expensive than the other. Knowing exactly how much material you need to throw away, you might get a better deal with per short ton pricing. On the other hand, flat rate pricing can assist you to keep a limit on costs when you are coping with unknown weights. Whether you regularly rent dumpsters for work or just want a one-time rental for a project throughout the house, you want to look around for the best rental prices based on your own demands.
Determining where to place your dumpster can have a large impact regarding how quickly you complete projects. The most efficient alternative is to pick a place that is close to the worksite. It is necessary, however, to consider whether this place is a safe alternative. Make sure that the area is free of obstacles that could trip individuals while they carry heavy debris.
A lot of individuals choose to set dumpsters in their driveways. It is a convenient alternative since it generally means you can avoid asking the city for a license or permit. In case you must set the dumpster on the road, then you should contact your local government to inquire whether you are required to get a license. Although a lot of municipalities will let folks keep dumpsters on the road for short amounts of time, others are going to ask you to complete some paperwork. Following these rules will help you stay away from fines that will make your project more costly. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,781 |
To some, graffiti is a form of self-expression and any available surface is seen as a canvas to feature the artwork. However, spray painted graffiti can deface homes, buildings, signs, and greatly impact a neighborhood's positive image.
Surface and Substance Type. Are you removing graffiti from brick, concrete, wood, glass, etc.? Is the surface smooth, porous, or painted? Is the graffiti applied with spray paint, marker, or stickers? All factors affect how to successfully remove the graffiti.
Removal Method. The right graffiti removal products will depend on the surface and substance type mentioned above. For some, the best method may be to paint over the graffiti, but if the spray paint or other substance must be removed, chemical removers or pressure washing are additional options.
Protective Coatings. Depending on the removal method, surfaces that contain protective coatings may require reapplication of these coatings. While anti-graffiti coatings and graffiti barriers make graffiti removal easier on most surfaces, you need to ensure the surface is properly coated before a graffiti substance is applied.
Removing spray paint and graffiti from smooth surfaces, such as glass, metal, and other non-porous surfaces, is safe and easy with the right graffiti removal products. Watch Dog™ Lift Away® Smooth Surface Graffiti Remover from Dumond Chemicals is not only safe for homeowners to use, but its non-toxic formula makes it an eco-friendly spray paint remover as well. When you have graffiti on porous surfaces, such as brick, cement, and stone, a more concentrated gel, like Watch Dog™ Wipe Out® Porous Surface Graffiti Remover is a better option. Whatever option you choose, be sure to read all product directions to ensure proper graffiti removal. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,782 |
In the age of being your best self, learning to understand your emotional development, just focusing on what is your place in the world, sometimes it is hard to justify the need for more than you. When you are feeling the pangs of desire for companionship, you are told "when you dont think about it will happen", or one of my favorites, " that is nothing but demons working inside you to keep you from your focus on the Lord". Dont get it twisted, I am purely G*d's Property BUT after the Earth, there was Man and after Man was his mate Woman. There is nothing in Genesis about.. " Adam, when you have self-actualized you will find that mate ", or " Adam, are you the person that you are looking for" the understanding is that people ( not to be a cliche musical) do need people. A baby will suffer without human contact, a animal becomes rabid without attention, and in a jail the harshest punishment is SOLITARY confinement. The need for love in your life is essential and there is no need to apologize, rationalize or pray it away. I am surrounded by people who love and care for me, in my life I was not blessed with an extended family. My family truly consists of me, my younger sister and a brother who I met 6 years ago but our relationship is a slow development. My support was created through friendship and work over this many years and I feel blessed to have people in my life, who care for me but have no blood relation to me. It was not until I hit my late '20's that I truly understood, "G*d Bless The Child Who Has Thier Own" when you dont enjoy the luxuries of a strong family, the need for self-reliance becomes incredibly important. Even beyond that need, is a stronger, more silent ache that longs to have someone who cares for you, just because you are who you are. Even on those days, when you are not particulary witty, those moments when the only person who would want to be around you is a mother and even she is reconsidering her decision. Those times, when all you want is someone just to tell you are beautiful, or to sit and read the paper with. We get advanced degrees, workout, brush our teeth, acquire fabulous jobs and become a more interesting human being so we can find that mate. It is not our only purpose on earth but it is what fuels us for the emotional rollercoaster that is life. I have no resolve on this issue and that plus one remains elusive but I celebrate the people who have a union that helps them this complicated forest of life. For those, like myself are still on this journey alone, never apologize for wanting to give and recieve the most precious of human emotions. I believe it means we are still alive! | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,783 |

America's Gilded Age led by 'forgettable presidents' in post-Civil War era
By Dr. Jonathan Stolz
Virginia Gazette
James Garfield, would have achieved. His time in office was brief; he died six months into his term after being shot by a disappointed office seeker. (G. F. Gilman // Wikimedia Commons)
During the last three decades of the 19th century, America changed socially, economically and politically.
This period, labeled the "Gilded Age" by Mark Twain, saw the nation transformed from an agrarian culture into an urban community that was largely controlled by industrial enterprises.
Political leaders had minimal influence on the pivotal advances that were revamping the country. Congress, state and local elected leaders were awash with dishonesty and graft.
The six commanders in chief from 1870 to 1896 — Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James Garfield, Chester A. Arthur, Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleveland — have been branded by a number of authors as the "forgettable presidents."
How these overlooked chief executives interacted with the multiple forces in play throughout this evolutionary period is frequently slighted in history.
In the course of the Gilded Age, America's modern industrial economy emerged.
Railroads were a crucial factor in creating this new corporate growth. The company's owners became powerful tycoons. Many built monopolies and cared little for their workers or the consumers. Profits were their sole motivation, earning the nickname of "robber barons."
The aggregation of a newly formed middle class, labor violence, racial tension, tariff issues, the spoils system and farmer discontent generated political discord. Into this fray, the White House occupants of the time had mixed results in addressing these and other issues.
Author Charles Calhoun in an article in the "Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era" characterizes some of these presidents as "lost men, weak, isolated and ineffectual." In 1885, a young Woodrow Wilson in his first published book said, "although the presidents' business was 'occasionally great,' it was usually not much above routine."
Americans were attentive to national politics in the post-Civil War period.
Participation in presidential elections set record numbers, sometimes reaching 80% turnout. But, because of political infighting and the concern for provoking sectional tension, the major parties tended to nominate presidential candidates without strong viewpoints giving the voters little choice to effect change. The nominees "shared a limited view of the presidents' role in national life," according to one author.
The Gilded Age's first commander in chief was the hero of Appomattox.

On Ulysses S. Grant's inauguration day in 1869, no one seemed more befitting to rebuild the propriety of the presidency lost during the incompetent Andrew Johnson administration. While the cloud of scandal overshadowed Grant's tenure, he did secure refinements in several areas including patronage, fiscal policy and reconstruction in the South. These achievements were not enough to raise his reputation above the wrong-doings that plagued his presidency in its later years.
Grant's successor Rutherford B. Hayes entered the White House in the wake of the controversial 1876 election.
While he was a man of integrity, the allegations of electoral fraud diminished Hayes' power to govern from the outset. His advocacy of civil service reform failed after Congress was unwilling to enact change. His withdrawal of troops from the defeated Confederate states ended Reconstruction and begun the Jim Crow era. Hayes' greatest accomplishment was that he left the office of the presidency stronger by restoring honesty to the position after the corruption of the Grant administration.
It is difficult to conjecture what Hayes's successor, James Garfield, would have achieved. His time in office was brief; he died six months into his term after being shot by a disappointed office seeker.
Transitioning from vice-president to president on Garfield's death, Chester A. Arthur surprised his fellow Republicans and Democratic opponents.
According to his biographer, Arthur seemed "stunned" that he became the chief executive. Although raised a party loyalist, he believed the system had gone bad. He recognized that he did not owe his elevation to the presidency to any particular political faction — this gave him a sense of independence.
He signed legislation that reformed the civil service, vetoed a bill that prohibited Chinese immigrants from entering the country and pushed for the downward revision of tariffs. He was denied renomination by the Republican Party in 1884. Although he did a much better job than most expected, he remains one of the most overlooked presidents.

Grover Cleveland was the only chief executive to serve two non-consecutive terms and likely the foremost of the Gilded Age's forgettable presidents.
Defeating Republican James Blaine in the mudslinging election of 1884, Cleveland was the first Democrat to become the nation's leader since 1856. He was also the only president married in the White House. Unlike other politicos of the era, Cleveland was considered honest, a fiscal conservative and favored business regulation and lower tariffs.
In 1888, Cleveland captured the popular vote but lost the Electoral College to the historically ignored Benjamin Harrison.
Harrison supported large government, a lofty tariff and improved civil rights for African Americans. His time in the Oval Office was mired by fierce labor strikes, discontent about the economy and a surging populist political movement. For some, his only memorable accomplishment was installing the first Christmas tree in the White House.
Cleveland triumphed in the rematch with Harrison in 1892.
His second term was not as successful as the first. A severe economic depression, the fight over gold versus silver and the initial use of presidential power to halt a strike made him unpopular. Despite this downslide, Cleveland's overall consistent dedicated leadership elevated the presidency to a higher level than any of his post-Civil War predecessors.
While frequently forgotten, the commanders in chief of the Gilded Age should not be entirely dismissed — they laid the foundation for the modern presidency that began in the early 20th century.

NEW YORK (September 20, 2016) – Since last year, twice as many of the nation's top fast food chains are responding to the public health crisis of antibiotic resistance by adopting strong policies that prohibit the routine use of antibiotics, or medically-important antibiotics, in the meat and poultry they serve. This is according to the second annual Chain Reaction report and scorecard, released today by a group of consumer, environmental and health organizations, which grades America's top 25 restaurant chains on their policies and practices regarding antibiotics use and transparency in their meat and poultry supply chains. The nine chains earning passing grades are Panera Bread (PNRA), Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG), Subway, Chick-fil-A, McDonald's (MCD), Wendy's (WEN), Taco Bell (YUM), Pizza Hut (YUM) and Papa John's Pizza (PZZA).
Today's report, Chain Reaction II: How Top Restaurants Rate on Reducing Use of Antibiotics in Their Meat Supply, is being released amidst a public outcry from consumers and shareholders urging chains like KFC, Olive Garden and In N Out Burger to adopt policies prohibiting the routine use of antibiotics in the meat and poultry they serve. The results from Chain Reaction II come one day before a high-profile meeting of the United Nations General Assembly on antimicrobial resistance, a major global health crisis caused by the misuse of antibiotics by the medical community and livestock industry.
Panera and Chipotle continue to lead the pack with solid "A" grades for implementing comprehensive policies that restrict antibiotics use across their meat and poultry supply.
Nine of the surveyed companies — twice as many as last year — received passing grades, largely due to their transition to chicken raised without antibiotics or chicken raised without medically-important antibiotics.
The restaurant chains surveyed this year made little progress on beef or pork.
McDonald's earned an improved grade of "C+" this year, after completing its 2015 commitment to end the use of medically-important antibiotics in its domestic chicken supply — with 100% of the chicken at its 14,000 U.S. locations meeting this standard. But the company has yet to take action on beef or pork.
Subway improved the most, leaping from an "F" in 2015 to a "B" in 2016. Last fall, under pressure from the coalition and consumers, the chain committed to ending the use of antibiotics across its entire meat and poultry supply by 2025. Very few other chains—and none at this scale—have taken such a strong stance. Implementation of new policies for chicken began this year, but not turkey, pork or beef.
Dunkin' Donuts was the only company to be downgraded to an "F" this year after weakening its publicly stated antibiotic policy.
The following chains also received an "F," either for having no disclosed antibiotics use policy or for having policies that allow for the continued routine use of antibiotics in the production of the meat and poultry they serve: Applebee's, Arby's, Buffalo Wild Wings, Burger King, Chili's, Dairy Queen, Denny's, Domino's, Dunkin' Donuts, IHOP, Jack in the Box, KFC, Little Caesars, Olive Garden, Sonic and Starbucks.
Research for the Chain Reaction II report, including the survey of the top 25 U.S. restaurant chains, was compiled by the Natural Resources Defense Council, Food Animal Concerns Trust, Friends of the Earth, Consumers Union, and Center for Food Safety.
"This year's progress is encouraging, but companies and consumers can only move the dial so far – it is time for the U.S. government to step up and mandate reductions in antibiotic use for the industry writ large. Without strong, enforceable regulations for antibiotic use in place, there is undue burden on the public to hold companies to their commitments, and to pressure the laggards in the industry to stop dragging their feet," said Cameron Harsh, Senior Manager for Organic & Animal Policy, Center for Food Safety.
More than 70 percent of medically-important antibiotics in the United States are sold for use on livestock and poultry. More than 96 percent of those drugs are routinely distributed in feed or water—often to animals that are not sick to speed up growth and help animals survive crowded and unsanitary conditions on industrial farms.
This practice contributes to the growing epidemic of drug-resistant infections in humans. Leading medical experts warn that we must stop overuse of antibiotics in human medicine and animal agriculture, or else the life-saving drugs we rely on to treat common infections and enable medical procedures could stop working.
Conservatively, at least 2 million Americans are infected with antibiotic-resistant infections every year, and at least 23,000 die as a direct result, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Earlier this year, scientists discovered a gene which allows bacteria to resist colistin–an antibiotic used as a last-resort when all other antibiotics fail–in the U.S. for the first time, raising the spectre of a kind of "super-superbug," resistant to every life-saving antibiotic available.
The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is an international nonprofit environmental organization with more than 2 million members and online activists. Since 1970, our lawyers, scientists, and other environmental specialists have worked to protect the world's natural resources, public health, and the environment. NRDC has offices in New York City; Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Chicago; Bozeman, Montana; and Beijing. Visit us at www.nrdc.org and follow us on Twitter @NRDC.
Food Animal Concerns Trust is a national nonprofit organization based in Chicago that promotes humane and healthy farms through science-based advocacy, consumer education, and support for humane farmers. Our mission is to improve the welfare of food producing animals, broaden opportunities for humane farmers, and address the public health problems that come from the production of meat, milk, and eggs. FACT has advocated eliminating the over-use of antibiotics in food animals for over 20 years.
Consumers Union is the public policy and advocacy division of Consumer Reports. Consumers Union works for health reform, food and product safety, financial reform, and other consumer issues in Washington, D.C., the states, and in the marketplace. Consumer Reports is the world's largest independent product-testing organization.

Changing up the landscaping outside your home requires careful thought and consideration. After all, it's a big decision to make. However, if you've considered getting rid of your lawn at any time, or felt that it's not what you want anymore, there are several good reasons why you should consider removing it and replacing it with a rock garden. Here are three of the best reasons why you should take the leap.
One of the biggest advantages to take into consideration is just how much water you'll save. Lawn irrigation needs vary depending upon where you live, how hot it is, and how much natural rainfall you receive. However, it's estimated that having a single patch of lawn covering a 10 foot by 10 foot area will require 62 gallons of water in order to keep it in good shape. Considering that the average lawn is considerably larger than this, you may be spending far more water than you realize on keeping that lawn looking nice. Of course, this is even more important if you live in an area that has regular droughts or water shortages.
Taking care of your lawn takes time and energy that you may or may not have. While having a nice-looking lawn is a great boost for one's ego and helps to improve the look of your yard, you may be spending quite a bit of time over the next several years tending to that lawn.
In addition to spending time outdoors trimming, edging, and weeding your lawn, you may also need to spend money on specialized tools, fertilizer, or pesticides in order to keep your lawn in good shape. These will all take time out of your day and money out of your wallet, which could be spent somewhere else on things you really enjoy doing if you didn't have a lawn to worry about.
Speaking of pesticides, getting rid of your lawn might be better for the planet and your local water supply, too.
Everything that gets on top of your lawn and is washed down into it with rain water and the water from your sprinklers or hose will eventually migrate through the ground and reach groundwater supplies. Unfortunately, this means that everything you use on your lawn, including pesticides, is creating pollution somewhere down the line.
Unfortunately, all-natural solutions for lawns often don't work as well as chemical pesticides. Considering that these pesticides can not only be dangerous for the groundwater in the area and has been linked to causing certain types of cancer in people who use them regularly, it's a great idea to get rid of the need for them entirely by switching to a rock garden.
Rock gardens can be just as lovely as lawns but don't create any of the problems that keeping a lawn can. Find out how a rock landscape can work for your home and start the process of making the switch. Contact a company, like Portland Sand & Gravel Co Inc, for more information. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,792 |

Q: p:tree ajax events are updating other components I have a problem with ajax events of the p:tree component
Here's the xhtml code:
<form id="form1">
<!-- Other components -->
<p:panel id="panel1" binding="#{panel1}"
header="..." toggleable="true" toggleSpeed="500"
collapsed="false" dynamic="true"
rendered="#{service.checkMethod(...)}">
<div class="column">
<p:tree id="treeId" value="#{tree.root}"
var="node" selectionMode="single"
rendered="#{tree != null}"
selection="#{flowScope.selectedNode}"
widgetVar="treeId"
process="tree">
<p:ajax event="select" process="@this"
update="@this :#{anotherPanel.clientId} :#{anotherPanel2.clientId}"
listener="#{service.onNodeSelect}" oncomplete="setSelectedNode()" />
<p:ajax event="expand" process="@this" listener="#{service.onNodeExpand}" />
<p:ajax event="collapse" process="@this" listener="#{service.onNodeCollapse}" />
<p:treeNode>
<h:outputLabel value="#{node.attribute}" />
</p:treeNode>
</p:tree>
<h:outputLabel
value="Empty"
rendered="#{tree.isEmpty()}" />
</div>
</p:panel>
<!-- Other components -->
</form>
The panel1 rendered attribute has a method which will create a new tree every time is updated, but somehow all the ajax events on the tree are calling that method. Even the expand and collapse update, which doesn't have the update defined, is doing that.
I already tried putting global="false", immediate="true", using different type of updates and process, on all the ajax events, or putting other panels between the tree and the panel, but it has the same effect. I searched all my files with Eclipse, to make sure that this method isn't called elsewhere, but it's only used here.
Is there a way to prevent the tree ajax events from re-rendering the above panel?

Amongst probably the most popular electrical wiring concerns is on how to wire a change. While utilizing switches at your house is fairly simple, wiring 1 might not be that uncomplicated for everyone. An ON-OFF switch is in fact quite simple to wire. There are different types of switches, but for this example, let's say you are putting in a single-pole toggle switch, an exceedingly typical change (plus the simplest).
There are three colors of wires within a standard single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and eco-friendly. Splice the black wire in two and hook up them on the terminal screws - a person on best and the other about the base screw with the change. The white wire serves for a resource of uninterrupted power which is generally connected to some light-weight coloured terminal screw (e.g., silver). Join the eco-friendly wire for the ground screw of your switch.
These measures would frequently be enough to create an average swap operate with no trouble. However, when you are certainly not confident that you choose to can accomplish the endeavor properly and properly you superior allow the professionals get it done alternatively. Immediately after all, there's a reason why this process is among the most frequent electrical wiring questions requested by most people.
For a few explanation, how to wire a ceiling fan can also be one among essentially the most typical electrical wiring thoughts. To simplify this activity, you may use only one swap for just a single ceiling fan. To wire the admirer, it's just a issue of connecting the black wire with the ceiling fan for the black wire of the switch. If there is a lightweight, the blue wire really should be linked into the black wire of your switch at the same time.
You can find reasons why they're probably the most normally requested electrical wiring issues. 1, several imagine it truly is basic to try and do, and two, these are typically the prevalent electrical tasks in your own home. But then you really should not put your safety in danger within your target to save money. The stakes could even be considerably better when you try and get monetary savings and do an electrical wiring occupation without the need of enough know-how or practical experience. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,795 |
The guidebook lied. We had thought "hey, we could combine day 5 and 6 into a long 11 hour day, wouldn't that be swell". Uh, no, it took us eight hours to finish just the first bit, and we were done for the day.
The day did start out great--a bit rocky for the first half an hour down the canyon. We quickly passed the old route around Mount Cinto--it was closed two years ago when seven hikers died in a landslide--and then past a bergerie selling fresh cheese.
Down the valley we could see the reservoir and a little settlement on the south side, so it's just a straight on downhill walk, right? We have 3G service, ferchissakes, and the guidebook said "easy easy easy", literally three times in the summary for the day, how can it be wrong?
Well, when the path started heading up a side canyon, I kinda wondered why--why is it getting so rocky? Why doesn't the trail go alongside the stream? Why is there another bocca straight ahead of us--are we going up it, in this heat? The eastern facing slope was hot and mostly shadeless, it was a slog up the 500m in elevation gain to the top.
Up on top, though, it was nice and breezy, and Jon suddenly realized he had mobile phone reception and figured out that Theresa May hadn't quite won the election, sigh. Ah, the real world, but it gave the Brits a fun hour of chatter about Jeremy and Labour's chances and etc etc etc, I enjoyed listening to the prattle. Another thirty minutes along the ridge led us to another refuge, this one with nice cold Cokes :-) for 3 euro each :-(. We didn't care, we were hot and boethered and they hit the spot.
Resting in the wilderness, with 3G. Learning about Mayhem.
From here, we figured that it'd just be an easy hour or two walk to the hotel, right, with maybe a dip in one of the pools along the river, easy peasy. Uh, no. First of all, there was a slightly too-long scree slope to get down, ugh, it just kept going and going... but at the bottom, we found a perfect mountain pool to cool off in.
I wasn't too keen on the pool--too cold, though I did quickly dip myself to the neck--but Dave and Jon really enjoyed it. It was fairly deep, so cannonball jumps were made, splashing about was had, even some prancing and parading. We took a few discreet pictures, nothing too naughty, it was a wonderful refreshing break.
Now we really expected the hotel to be right around the corner--just down the hill, right? No. There was a bergerie with blue chairs and ice cream that we passed, certainly the hotel would be 200 meters farther along the "easy path through the woodland? Uh no.
We were tired, and hungry, and regretted not having a bite to eat at that high refuge. It got shady, but that also meant the breeze didn't penetrate the forest, so it was also sweaty, and we couldn't see much. Is the hotel just beyond this ridge? NO. There's another ridge. Is it at the top of this next one? NO, though now we could hear traffic. An hour of this hungry marching, and we were all just tired.
Finally, and a bit unexpectedly, the path abruptly came up to a road edge, and we could see the hotel a few hundred meters on, yay. The hotel was all full, but they had a gite available-basically a bare concrete room with a bath and four bunk beds--and we snagged it and got on with our afternoon routine--washing up, this time with a wonderfully hot shower, some clothes cleaning, a nap, then G&T o'clock. Dinner was at the hotel--a spicy stewy soup which I liked, a thin ribeye steak which I never enjoy, though Jon and Dave that it was great and nommed it all down.
Some blogging, some planning, some photo-swapping, and it was time for bed. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,796 |

Hicksville Landscaper Collects Winnings One Year After Finding a $1 Million Ticket in a Pile of Leaves
By Lyndsay McCabe Published: December 28 2013
Marvin Rosales-Martinez was raking leaves after Hurricane Sandy when he came across a winning scratch-off card, but he had to wait over a year to officially claim his winnings.
Back in 2012, one man unknowingly won the lottery without even purchasing a ticket, and this week, he was finally able to collect his winnings this Friday.
Marvin Rosales-Martinez, 27, was working for a landscaping company back in October 2012 when he was raking leaves that had come down during Hurricane Sandy. In one fateful pile, he uncovered a Win for Life scratch-off worth $1 million.
"I saw a ticket rolling with a bunch of leaves," said Rosales-Martinez to the New York Daily News. "It was all wet, and I took it home and I dried it. When I found out I had won, I felt very lucky. I felt very happy."
The landscaper then had quite a wait before he could receive his winnings, as the ticket was too wet to be scanned at the 7-Eleven that Rosales-Martinez visited, according to CBS News. The employees recognized that the ticket was valuable, so they told him to take it to New York State Lottery headquarters.
State lottery officials proceeded to conduct a year-long investigation to make sure that the winning ticket was legitimate and that no one else claimed it as theirs.
He selected the cash option to collect his winnings, so the winner ended up taking home $515,612 after taxes, according to lottery officials.
Rosales-Martinez, who lives with his mother in Hicksville, plans to use his winnings to help his family and give gifts to his loved ones. As far as working, he plans on continuing to work for the landscaping company six days a week.

A deep sea octopus has taken motherly devotion to a new level after guarding her eggs for four-and-a-half years. Biologists say that this a new record, with no creature even coming close to this octopus' feats.
Biologists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institution observed the octopus, using cameras from an unmanned submarine. The team was led Bruce Robinson, who has been observing deep sea life in the depths of Monterey Canyon for 25 years.
Back in May 2007 he observed a female deep sea octopus, which is all of 20cm in size, on the sea floor.
The creature stood out because of distinct scaring on her mantle and when Robinson returned a month later, he found the same octopus 1,400 meters below the surface.
"This was a chance to watch the whole brooding process," Robison said. "It was a fluke. No one before ever had a chance to see anything like it, so it was kind of bootleg science, but we decided to watch her again and again," the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Over the four-and-a-half-year period, Robinson and his team made 18 dives and made plenty of observations. They saw how the eggs were growing in size, but also how the octopus was becoming smaller, which the research team believes meant she was not even leaving her eggs to search for food or rest.
"During that whole time we never saw her leave the eggs once," said Robison, whose team would watch the octopus closely for an hour or more each time they visited her rock. "We never saw her eat anything, and she paid no attention to the crabs and shrimp swimming by, except when she pushed them away with her arms because they were predators."
Octopus eggs hatch relatively quickly in warm or shallow water, with mothers needing to spend from one to three months guarding their eggs. However, the amount of time rises considerably the colder the water becomes. The temperature in the Monterey Canyon, where the octopus was brooding was around +3 degrees Celsius (37.4 degrees Fahrenheit).
The team, who published their scientific report in the journal PLOS ONE, noticed that when they first observed the deep sea creature, that the skin of her mantle was a shade of purple, which is common when octopuses start brooding. However as time elapsed her mantle became whiter, which showed she was starting to age.
In September 2011, the team once again made a dive to observe the octopus, however on this occasion, they did not find her as she had presumably died. They also found in excess of 160 open eggs, meaning that the young hatchlings had finally made it out into the deep sea.
Octopuses typically have a single reproductive period and then they die. Once they lay a batch of eggs, the female will stay to protect them until they eventually hatch. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,799 |

Audio Drama: Big Finish's Jago & Litefoot Series 3 (Spoilers!)
I originally wasn't going to post this until after I finished reviewing the Tom Baker era, but after learning that Trevor Baxter, our dear Professor George Litefoot, had passed away prompted me to do this earlier than expected. In a way, I thought that it would be a wonderful way to honor and pay tribute to Baxter, especially since "Jago & Litefoot" was how I started getting into Big Finish audio dramas and audio books.
One thing that I found really interesting about Series 3 is the fact that this time around, it seemed like the stories had more of a science fiction or "Doctor Who" vibe to it, as compared to the last two series which felt more akin to Victorian gothic mysteries or Sherlock Holmes cases. This, of course, is probably due to the nature of the big bad and the recurring theme of this particular series, which, is refreshing, as it shows that Big Finish knows how to shake things up a little so that there would be some variety in the stories that they come up with.
As usual, Christopher Benjamin and Trevor Baxter are as brilliant as ever as Henry Gordon Jago and Professor George Litefoot, and the material that they are given always allows them, and their secondary cast, to shine.
Last time, both Litefoot and Jago were put through the wringer, and now their bond with each other has only gotten stronger and stronger, as can be seen in the stories throughout this particular series.
This series also has the addition of Leela (Louise Jameson), who has slipped back into the role of Leela as if she never left. The only thing that is noticeable here is the fact that Jameson's voice is deeper now, but everything that she brought to the series is just magical, and her chemistry with all the cast members of the series is just phenomenal.
Once again, I have to praise Big Finish for creating stories that are truly inventive, with sound effects that astound me and terrify me to the bone just as much as I would be terrified of "Doctor Who" aliens and creatures today like the Weeping Angels.
Each of these stories is strong, although I did feel that Justin Richards' "Dead Men's Tales" was a little bit weak for an opening story. My favorites in this series are "Swan Song", by John Dorney, followed by Andy Lane's series finale, "Chronoclasm". Matthew Sweet's "The Man at the End of the Garden" has some pretty amazing sound effects and a great story that makes for a good and creepy locked room mystery, but I loved all the plot twists and turns, and the emotional oomph that "Swan Song" and "Chronoclasm" had.
From here on out, you know the drill!
Series 3 started out with Justin Richards' "Dead Men's Tales", which, as I mentioned earlier, I felt was a little bit weak for a series opener.
However, I did love how Leela was so easily integrated into the world of "Jago & Litefoot", and that it didn't take long for her to have good chemistry with Ellie Higson (Lisa Bowerman) and Sergeant Quick (Conrad Asquith). I also loved the fact that Leela went to the opera and worked undercover as a barmaid in this story, and I would have given anything to see her doing those things.
I also loved how they made the Wet Men sound terrifying, although I do admit that I really had to concentrate while they were talking so that I could understand what they were saying.
This was also their first case involving the recurring theme for the series- the time breaks- and was also the first time that they mentioned the big bad for this series, Mr. Payne.
Matthew Sweet's "The Man at the End of the Garden" was a wonderful gothic Victorian locked room mystery that had me guessing until a certain point with all the unpredictable twists and turns that the story had. This was a little bit of a return to form as this felt more Sherlockian than "Dead Men's Tales", and didn't really prominently feature a time break or Mr. Payne.
However, the story itself is a gem, and the sound effects were wonderful. There has always been something unsettling about jackdaws, ravens and crows, and when you hear them battering against a building like they did in this story, it truly is terrifying. So, kudos to Big Finish for making that work.
John Dorney's "Swan Song" is a wonderful story that I honestly would have liked to see translated on the small screen, as I would have liked seeing how they would deal with the time breaks bleeding into one another, with the people on the other side looking like ghosts at times, and with them crossing into different times.
This was also more of a "Doctor Who" story as compared to "The Man at the End of the Garden", as it dealt more with the time breaks and finally introduced Mr. Payne to us.
I always have soft spot for stories that involve the theater and performing arts, so this one was definitely one that I was guaranteed to love. I love how the New Regency Theater did have a spirit, and that Jago recognized her, and that she inhabited Alice because they were both alike in the sense that they had a need to perform and to be loved by those they are performing for. I also love the fact that in the end, Alice and the theater herself sacrificed themselves to save the world. I thought that that was just beautiful.
I also love how they punctuated the story with strains of the music for "Swan Lake" making it even more haunting.
Andy Lane's "Chronoclasm" was an excellent finale to this series, as we finally discovered who Mr. Payne is, and what his plans are goals are, which threw me or a loop because I didn't expect that he was collecting enough time energy to be able to bring back his wife. And it became even more tragic when it turned out that the Time Eaters, those aliens in big steel balls that seem to keep on following poor Litefoot around, who showed Payne what to do to get his wife back, actually used up all his wife's remaining energy, which makes his entire plan worth nothing at all.
This was definitely more into "Doctor Who" territory, and I loved having Ellie around again, as she hadn't really been there for "The Man at the End of the Garden" and "Swan Song".
Plus, I loved how the ending was unexpected and how it set up the next series, with Leela discovering that her Time Ring (a la Season 12) doesn't want to work, and that both Jago and Litefoot met a mysterious stranger called Professor Dark, a name that had been teased lightly in this episode.
In the end, this series refreshingly decided to delve a little bit more into "Doctor Who" territory, due to the fact that Leela is around and due to the fact that they were dealing with breaks in time as the recurring theme.
I think my only gripe is that I wish that Payne had been set up more, as David Collings' Sanders was in the second series, but in the end, I am more than happy with what they did with series, especially as the stories resonated with me more.
I am also glad that Leela will be sticking around for a little while longer, and I cannot wait to see what Professor Dark and the fourth series has in store for them.
Did you like Series 3? What was your favorite story here? What did you think of Louise Jameson's return to the role of Leela? Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Q: White space at bottom of WebView in JQuery mobile I am using 1.0a3 version of jquery-mobile. The problem is that a white space of approx. 40 px is added to the bottom of a WebView. In the Android emulator the white space doesn't appear always, when it does, i get a Can't get the viewWidth after the first layout warning. On a 2.3.3. device the white space does always show up.
I tried switching to version 1.0a2, 1.0a4 and 1.0b2, but on 1.0a2 the screen goes blank on orientation change, and on 1.0b2 and 1.0a4 split button appearance changes in a not desired way. I haven't changed nothing myself in the css.
What could be the things to change to get rid of the white space?
A: The issue was with the min-height attribute in the .css file. I replaced min-height: 100% with min-height: 500px in .ui-page and .ui-page-active elements and it removed the issue. As a side effect, the gradient color is more expanded, but that should not be a big problem.

Root of "Shaken Baby" Scam Revealed
"I was in the Queensland Police Service for 20 years and I saw first hand how the vaccines caused death and the police would investigate, and while supported by the medical system would prosecute the parents for the injuries and death caused by the vaccines."
Chris Savage, Queensland Police officer
Jim Stone, Editor
I joined the Queensland Police Service in Queensland Australia in 1989 at the age of 27. In my work as a State Police officer I would be called to sudden deaths to investigate the circumstances. This included babies and young children.
I attended several where the baby was found dead by one of the parents in the morning, in Australia the term "Sudden Infant Death Syndrome" is used to describe this outcome. Notice how the "syndrome" is frequently used - I believe this serves the purpose of mystifying the problem and therefore the cause. Another is "gulf war syndrome" which is clearly caused by the Anthrax vaccine.
I began to dig deeper whenever I had the opportunity to conduct investigations into the infant deaths. In 1993 I was the first response to a 6 month old baby death. I went to the hospital because the baby had been taken there by ambulance, and at the hospital I obtained the testimony of the mother. In her statement she told me that her baby was eating and sleeping normally but when the baby was vaccinated at the age of 2 months (which was the vaccine policy in Australia) the baby then would not sleep and would not eat properly and suffered frequent convulsions
She went to several doctors trying to find an answer. They gave her a common drug called "Panadol" which did not do anything. The convulsions continued so she went to another doctor who gave her another drug which also did not work. The baby continued to convulse and vomit frequently. The little girl would not sleep and the mother was sleep deprived also.
Because the situation was so desperate, the mother went doctor shopping. The other doctors simply gave her more drugs. At the age of about 5 months the baby died. The QPS then charged the mother for causing the death by using a forensic report which showed slightly elevated drug levels. Fortunately in this particular case the Director of Public Prosecutions did not want to proceed with a murder charge because the mother provided a statement which outlined normal sleep and eating prior to the vaccine.
Another incident occurred when I saw a father come through the Ipswitch District Watchhouse Q1D on the charges of Manslaughter (similar to 2nd degree murder) of a 5 year old that had suffered a severe reaction to the initial vaccines and was brain damaged. The QPS relied on the false medical premise titled "shaken baby syndrome" - there is that "Syndrome" word again.
The child succombed to the injuries from the vaccines and the QPS opted to blame the father on the basis of "Shaken Baby Syndrome" but there was no evidence other than the vaccine for the cause of the injuries when the "shaken baby" accusation was applied.
I have seen grieving parents charged with causing the deaths of their babies,
The highest risk period for death by vaccine was at two months when the babies are given all the vaccines;
When the detectives investigate the death of a baby they interview each parent separately. If there are any conflicting versions of the story they use the differences to attack the parents credibility and rely on the flawed "shaken baby syndrome" medical evidence. If there is no conflict, even a minor one in the parent testimony, the police then turn it over to a "medical doctor" who has "experience" with "shaken baby syndrome" and attempt to prosecute from that angle.
If the parents tell the investigator they picked up the lifeless baby and shook it to wake it, the police will prosecute even though the baby was already dead. Since "shaken baby syndrome" has no hard evidence, such as bruising or other injury, it's the perfect way to blame parents for damage caused by vaccines.
In October of 2009, a baby died shortly after being vaccinated with the H1N1 vaccine, and to everyone's surprise the state coroner ruled that there was no link to the vaccine.
In my view, the QPS officers are sufficiently brainwashed to not realize the vaccines are causing the injuries and deaths; and when they investigate and prosecute they rely heavily on "medical evidence" which is significantly influenced by big Pharma, and appear to wish to divest responsibility.
Now they give the vaccinations at birth and I speculate that this is so that any damage can be blamed as having the problems since birth.
After giving a parent an article by Dr. Vera Schreibner, which outlined vaccine damage, the hierarchy of the QPS pursued me so I left on medical grounds. Upon my exit they tried to get me to take SSRI's but I threw them all in the trash; they would have caused severe problems as you already know.

It seems that the excitement of spotting the yesteryear actor, who is rarely seen at public events, was so high that everyone wanted a picture of her. A source who was at the venue tells us, "Priyanka was yet to arrive and the photographers were hanging out in the premises."
It seems that '80s actor Mandakini may have been the cause of some chaos at a suburban shopping mall on Wednesday (August 21) evening.
A press conference for the Hollywood animation film, Planes, was being held inside a theatre at the mall, and even Priyanka Chopra, who has voiced a character in the film, was to make an appearance.
It seems that the excitement of spotting the yesteryear actor, who is rarely seen at public events, was so high that everyone wanted a picture of her. A source who was at the venue tells us, "Priyanka was yet to arrive and the photographers were hanging out in the premises. That's when news spread that Mandakini was in the same mall. Everyone rushed to get snaps of her, but the actor refused. However, one person kept nagging her and eventually, she lost her cool. None of the other photographers were pestering her."
Mandakini beat a hasty retreat from the venue. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,803 |
The fog harp's potential to deliver more clean water across the globe is threefold, but taking the product to market requires savvy industry partners.
The National Science Foundation grant is to study how computational fluid mechanics — the use of computers to study movement of fluid — can improve forecasts of contaminant spread in the ocean, floodwaters, and atmosphere.
The study details the use of a drug that can block the way cancer cells respond to fluid flow. This work is part of a Munson-led five-year research grant project across multiple universities, examining the role of interstitial fluid flow in the spread of glioma cells. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,804 |

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) involved in several biological processes and diseases. MiRNAs regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level, mostly downregulating their targets by binding specific regions of transcripts through imperfect sequence complementarity. Prediction of miRNA-binding sites is challenging, and target prediction algorithms are usually based on sequence complementarity. In the last years, it has been shown that by adding miRNA and protein coding gene expression, we are able to build tissue-, cell line-, or disease-specific networks improving our understanding of complex biological scenarios. In this chapter, we present an application of a recently published software named SWIM, that allows to identify key genes in a network of interactions by defining appropriate "roles" of genes according to their local/global positioning in the overall network. Furthermore, we show how the SWIM software can be used to build miRNA–disease networks, by applying the approach to tumor data obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

Younger Republicans think more diverse nominees would help GOP win
By Meredith Dost and Seth Motel
Here's some advice from younger Republicans for improving the party's fortunes in national elections: Nominate more minority and female candidates.
A recent survey of Republican and Republican-leaning adults about the GOP's future found stark age differences in opinions on the question of whether more diverse nominees would help the party perform better in future elections. (Some of the findings in this post were not included in the original report.)
Among Republicans and leaners under 40, 68% say nominating more racial and ethnic minorities would help and 64% say the same about more women nominees. Far fewer Republicans 40 and older view these steps as helpful: 49% say nominating more racial and ethnic minorities would help and 46% say the same of nominating more women.
More generally, younger Republicans are more likely than older Republicans to say that the GOP has not been welcoming to all groups of people. Overall, most Republicans (60%) think the party "is tolerant and open to all groups of people," while 36% say it is not. Younger Republicans are divided – 51% say the party is tolerant and open to all, while 45% disagreed. Among older Republicans, twice as many view the party as tolerant (64%) than not (32%).
Based on surveys conducted over the past year, one-third of all Republicans and GOP leaners are under age 40. Those in the younger group are less likely to call themselves Republicans – 59% are Republicans while 41% simply lean toward the GOP – than those in the older group (65% Republicans vs. 35% leaners). Also, fewer younger Republicans and leaners describe their political views as conservative (54% vs. 67% of older Republicans) and fewer agree with the Tea Party (26% vs. 43%).
Despite these ideological differences, younger and older Republicans generally agree that the GOP needs to address major problems – rather than just make minor changes – in order to be competitive in the future.
And there are no significant age differences over the party's future ideological direction: 50% of Republicans under 40 and 55% of those 40 and older favor their leaders moving in a more conservative direction.
However, younger Republicans have a different outlook about congressional compromise. Nearly four-in-ten (38%) said the GOP hasn't compromised enough with Democrats in Congress, compared with 25% of older Republicans. About a quarter (24%) of younger Republicans believe the party has compromised too much, compared to 36% of Republicans 40 and older. About one-third of each group say the party has handled this about right.

Thank you again to everyone who participated in the Garden Bloggers' Book Club for January. Are you ready for a completely different type of gardening book for February?
Though I've been making the final selection each month, I do so with input from any one willing to make a suggestion, so I looked back through all the comments and I believe we have Tracy (Outside) to thank for suggesting this one. Thank you, Tracy!
And what should you do if you can't get a copy of this book or have no time to read it? You can still participate by writing a post about any book written by either Katharine S. White or Elizabeth Lawrence. Don't have access to any of their books? Well, you really should read a book to participate in a book club, but I can see where for some gardeners, February is a busy month. So, in keeping with the theme, two gardeners, you could also write about another gardener who you've exchanged ideas with over the years, even if not by letters.
The official club post will be posted February 28th, to provide as much time as possible for people to read the book and post their thoughts on their own blog. Just leave me a comment or an email (see the sidebar) when your post is ready.
This is my first time reading along and I must say, I really enjoy these ladies!
Carole, I wondered who deserved the thanks! If I ever meet Tracy she gets a hug from me, too, for suggesting that we read "Two Gardeners".
Well, y'all are just making me blush. I'm glad everyone is enjoying the book. I know I am - I started it on Wednesday and just finished last night. I know I'll be rereading most/all of it before I post my review. On the first go-around I couldn't stop to take notes - I had to keep reading.
Actually, my recommendation was somewhat self-serving. I had already purchased the book in late fall but hadn't read it yet. figured if the GBBC read it, that would be one less book for me to buy.
Carol, your Gardeners' Book Club is a delightful idea, more power to you and your endeavor. I plan to put a link to it in my More Links/Blog Roll list, hope that is OK with you. If not, please let me know. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,810 |

Freedom Downtime is a feckin' 2001 documentary film sympathetic to the convicted computer hacker Kevin Mitnick, directed by Emmanuel Goldstein and produced by 2600 Films.
The documentary centers on the oul' fate of Mitnick, who is claimed to have been misrepresented in the feature film Takedown (2000) produced by Miramax and adapted from the book by the oul' same name by Tsutomu Shimomura and John Markoff, which is based on disputed events. Jesus Mother of Chrisht almighty. The film also documents a feckin' number of computer enthusiasts who drive across the bleedin' United States searchin' for Miramax representatives and demonstratin' their discontent with certain aspects of the bleedin' bootleg script of Takedown they had acquired, what? One of their major points of criticism was that the bleedin' script ended with Mitnick bein' convicted to serve a feckin' long-term prison sentence, while in reality, at the time the feckin' film's production, Mitnick had not yet even had a trial but nonetheless was incarcerated for five years without bail in a high-security facility. Bejaysus. Freedom Downtime also touches on what happened to other hackers after bein' sentenced. Chrisht Almighty. The development of the oul' Free Kevin movement is also covered.
Several notable and iconic figures from the feckin' hackin' community appear in the feckin' movie, includin' Phiber Optik (Mark Abene), Bernie S (Ed Cummings), Alex Kasper, and director Emmanuel Goldstein (Eric Corley). Freedom Downtime tries to communicate a different view of the hacker community from that usually shown by the feckin' mainstream media, with hackers bein' depicted as curious people who rarely intend to cause damage, driven by a feckin' desire to explore and conduct pranks. Here's a quare one. The film goes on to question the oul' rationality of placin' computer hackers who went "over the feckin' line" in the same environment as serious felons.
It also contains interviews with people related to Mitnick and hacker culture in general. The authors of newspaper about the bleedin' hacker. Jasus. Markoff is ridiculed as the bleedin' narrator, director Goldstein (a hacker himself), points out his factual errors durin' the oul' interview, the cute hoor. Reba Vartanian, Mitnick's grandmother, also appears in an oul' number of interview segments, be the hokey! Furthermore, lawyers, friends, and libertarians give their view of the feckin' story. In fairness now. Footage and interviews from the DEF CON and Hackers on Planet Earth conventions try to dispel some hacker myths and confirm others.
The film premiered at H2K, the 2000 H.O.P.E, grand so. convention. After that the bleedin' film saw a limited independent theatrical release and was shown at film festivals. Jasus. It was released on VHS and sold via the oul' 2600 web site. Whisht now and listen to this wan.
In June 2004, a holy DVD was released, the hoor. The DVD includes a feckin' wealth of extra material spread over two discs, includin' three hours of extra footage, an interview with Kevin Mitnick in January 2003 (shortly after his supervised release ended), and various DVD eggs.[1] It also includes subtitles in 20 languages, provided by volunteers.

Top Videos: Jeremy Lin Talks 'Small Things' Kobe's Been Teaching Him
Kevin Chan
The Los Angeles Lakers will face off against the Warriors for the second time in three days after losing to them on Thursday 120-105. In that game the Lakers had issues defensively and couldn't stop either of the Splash Brothers; Curry and Thompson combined for 45 points on 68% shooting. Tonight the Lakers will look to shore up their defense and continue to work out their newer players like Lin, Randle, Price and Ed Davis. While wins and losses don't matter in preseason, this can be a time where a team can start to develop good habits for the upcoming season. Hopefully the Lakers don't get in the habit of giving up 120 points. Let's jump into the analysis of tonight's match-up.
— Have You Seen These LIMITED EDITION "Mamba Strikes Back" T-Shirts? —
Frontcourt: David Lee played well against the Lakers on Thursday – he was very efficient with 12 points on nine shot attempts and faced limited resistance in the paint. In addition to being the Warrior's main scorer in the post, Lee is also a great rebounder. He is limited defensively which is why Bogut complements him well. Bogut was in great form on Thursday with four blocks and a steal. He's the Warriors' best rim protector and anchor of the defense.
At small forward the Warriors start the veteran Iguodala who is a stalwart defender and super athletic finisher. Iguodala only played 15 minutes on Thursday and probably will see his minutes limited to prevent any unfortunate injuries. Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green are the primary back-ups at forward. They're both versatile players who can defend, rebound and shoot threes. Unlike the Lakers, the Warriors didn't really have any notable additions to their roster so they aren't testing out new players. It seems like they're just working out the kinks in their rotation.
Backcourt: As mentioned above, the Splash Brothers absolutely torched the Lakers on Thursday. Curry and Thompson are talented scorers and the Lakers didn't defend them well. Their back-ups look to be Shaun Livingston and Leondro Barbosa – both are out for preseason. Livingston is recovering from injury and Barbosa is resting since he played all summer at the FIBA World Cup. This opens up the door for newcomer Nemanja Nedovic to potentially earn a spot on the roster. He played 15 minutes off the bench on Thursday and had some nifty moves, but couldn't finish in the paint.
Things To Watch For:
Back-up Point Guard: Combo guard Clarkson is out for a week after suffering a moderate calf strain. Meanwhile Ronnie Price is hoping to earn one of the final spots on the Lakers roster. He's a veteran point guard who players smart and looked good in 26 minutes of playing time on Thursday. The Lakers really need to be three-deep at point guard since Nash, even while healthy, will have limited minutes. Look to see if Price can continue his strong play tonight.
Defense: The score for Thursday night's game reawakened buried memories from the D'Antoni era. The Lakers didn't defend well and the Warriors shot 56% as a team. In particular the Lakers were soft on the perimeter and didn't close on three-point shots. The Warriors converted 57.1% of their threes. Clearly the Lakers will need to improve on the defensive end. I don't care if it's only preseason – the Lakers should not allow teams to score 120 points on them at any point.
Continued Frontcourt Development: Byron Scott is still figuring out his frontcourt rotation and it sounds like the starting line-up could change nightly depending on the match-up. Randle and Davis will definitely factor into the equation and both have showed some great things during the preseason. Davis is full of energy on the court and has great bounce for a big man. I can see him playing the energy role for the Lakers much like Kenneth Faried does on the Nuggets. Byron Scott said that Randle looked lost at times on the court on Thursday. Randle is still adjusting to the speed and athleticism of the NBA and it's paramount that he get as many minutes in the preseason for his development.
Heading into tonight's game, the Lakers are four-point underdogs according to Sportsbook.ag

WASHINGTON -- Trump administration officials gave a few more details Friday on President Trump's plan to import lower-priced prescription drugs from Canada, but offered less information about another initiative the president discussed in a speech on Thursday: cards worth $200 to be distributed to Medicare beneficiaries to help them pay for prescription drugs.
"The FDA issued a final rule allowing proposals for importation of certain drugs from Canada by states, as well as the District of Columbia, territories, tribes and in certain circumstances, pharmacies and wholesalers," Brian Harrison, chief of staff at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), said on a phone call with reporters. "These programs will be managed by a program sponsor, which will be authorized by the FDA to facilitate the importation of certain prescription drugs approved in Canada and appropriately labeled and approved for use in the U.S."

Q: Meaning of "Crown" in court This is a sentence in an article about law and courts:
the culprit argue the Crown couldn't prove that...
What is the meaning of Crown in this sentence? I guess it's the chief of court, but I'm not sure.
A: No, it is not really the chief of court.
The Crown is the monarch, though the monarch never appears in person. Instead, the UK has the Crown Prosecution Service who prosecute on behalf of the Crown, who in effect represents the state. The term is used only for serious crimes that are tried in a Crown Court before a jury.
The history, as far as I know, is that only a monarch (the Crown)or his representative could issue a death sentence (capital punishment), and traditionally this could take place only in the capital city.
A: In Canada or the UK (and probably other commomwealth countries) the word Crown in court refers to the state or the government, the folks who are prosecuting you in a criminal case. The Crown is represented by a Crown Attorney, and in some conversations it may be this person who's being referred to with the word, while in others it will be the state.
"The Crown couldn't prove that" means that the point in question couldn't be proven against the accused by the entire side (the lawyers, witnesses for the Crown etc) that is arguing for conviction. (Technically, witnessses don't care if you're convicted or not and are just coming forward to tell the truth. In practice, each is either a Crown witness or a defense witness, and generally believe you to be guilty or innocent and want you convicted or acquitted.) The counterpart might be "the defense proved that" some other statement was true. Of course, the burden of proof is not on the defense; the Crown has to prove an accused is guilty; defense does not need to prove innocence.

Short Life is a game full of dangers and obstacles. There's no doubt that there are a lot of interesting levels and dangers to escape from. You can enjoy the short life unblocked game at school online for free on this website. It was developed by Game Tornado studio.
You'll be provided a character which needs to bypass all the obstacles such as mines, spikes, crushers, traps etc. Short Life is full of blood and disturbing graphics, hence weak hearted people shouldn't play it at all. There's no doubt that you'll appreciate playing mutilate a doll if you enjoyed this game. Android users can enjoy it on their devices as it's available on Play Store.
Interesting, bloody, not for faint heart people. This is what describes this game in better words. Most people would think that it's easy to complete all the levels. But that's not true, ragdoll gaming series is way tough as characters of the game are easily destroyed by the obstacles.
In fact, some levels are full of puzzles and it takes time to find the correct way to reach the finish point. Timing is what you need to master in the short life unblocked game. That's because of some traps, causing unimaginable harm, such as crushers, mines etc. works on a timing basis. You'll be given a short amount of time to bypass them.
This is the most interesting thing about this game. There are 16 levels to play in the online version and around 40 levels in Android game. In future updates, more levels might be added into the game. We've added the game to our website from the official source. So, all the updates will be automatically loaded once you start the game. The more levels you unlock, the more characters in the game will be unlocked.
Higher levels are long and have a lot of dangerous objects in the maps. Developers have designed the game in such a way that gamers won't be able to complete all the levels with ease. That's why we're suggesting you to use all the tactics you can to bypass different obstacles in this game.
Developers have decided game name as short life because they're clever enough to know that most people will die in a short amount of time in the game. The character body is shattered into pieces and it's difficult and sad for us to watch the scattered body parts.
All the levels contain 3 stars which need to be collected by a gamer. More star unlocks your ability to use different heroes available in the game. There's no doubt that it's way difficult to collect stars while going through the obstacles. We can earn 3 stars by collecting them in the way. Very first Hero costs 8 stars, ranging up to 40 stars. There's no special ability of heroes, but they do have different walking ways, sound effects etc.
Beared man is unlocked by default. He's wearing a white vest with red shorts. Thick hair and mustache give him a unique look. You're gonna love this mas as he's capable of moving fast and his slim body allows gamers to control him in best possible way. He moves exceptionally faster and is a default hero in short life game.
Black suite man appears to be a businessman. He's having harsh looks and wearing a black formal suit and has bald hair. There are dark circles under his eyes and it appears that he's hard-working office man. It needs 8 stars to unlock the businessman and he can move quite fast because of slim body shape.
Wearing a Red shirt & black pant and having a big tummy gives him a look of the heavy man. He can't move fast and it'll be hard enough for you to complete the levels. We've played several levels using him and we should say that it was an interesting and crazy experience. It's very funny to move this heavy man throughout the levels.
White top, blue jeans, and bold body give her a very interesting and good look. I know most gamers would love to play the levels using her. That's why she costs 24 stars. She can move quite faster and her slim body allows us to bypass different obstacles with ease. I should say that she really looks a very interesting woman.
There's a middle-aged man in the Heroes list, wearing a cop dress. He's wearing black sunglasses, which gives him desperate looks. The slim and flexible body makes it easier to jump over the mines and to cross the narrow places. One should have 32 stars to unlock the cop.
Fat Wome looks very heavy yet an interesting hero in Short Life unblocked game. She's having a very big tummy and it's quite difficult for us to escape from narrow places using her. But, you should unlock her by collecting 40 stars.
Use the Left and Right arrow to move the Hero backward and forward respectively.
Make sure to lie down to escape from narrow places using the Down arrow key.
Use Up arrow to jump over the mines and spikes etc.
Click on the Restart button to start afresh.
Control the sound from Settings.
Short Life unblocked is rated 16+ because it's full of blood. Almost all the ragdoll game series is full of such disturbing graphics. Hence, you shouldn't play this game if you're a saint hearted person or child. The game is itself very interesting because of different traps and heroes developed by the developers.
Share this game with your friends in the classroom and let them know about the interesting facts of this game. Bookmark our site as we're continuously adding new and interesting games to this website. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,820 |

De wasroos (Anemonia viridis) is een zeeanemonensoort uit de familie Actiniidae. De wetenschappelijke naam van de soort werd in 1775 als Priapus viridis gepubliceerd door Peter Forsskål.
Beschrijving
Deze grote anemoon heeft lange buigzame tentakels die grijsbruin of felgroen van kleur zijn. De groene variant heeft paarse/roze punten aan de tentakels. De groene kleur wordt vaak toegeschreven aan de aanwezigheid van symbiotische algen in de tentakels, maar is eigenlijk het resultaat van de aanwezigheid van groen fluorescerend eiwit dat aanwezig is in koralen, zeeanemonen en sommige andere neteldieren. Kenmerkend is dat de tentakels zich zelden terugtrekken in de zuil, die roodachtig of grijsbruin is. Gemiddeld is de wasroos 8 cm breed.
Het anemoonweefsel bevat symbiotische algen (zoöxanthellen). Wanneer het aantal algen afneemt, kan de anemoon dofgrijs van kleur worden. De algen hebben licht nodig om te groeien, dus wasrozen zijn te vinden op plekken waar het zonlicht goed doordringt.
Verspreiding
Het verspreidingsgebied van de wasroos is de oostelijke Atlantische Oceaan, vanaf Noorwegen en Groot-Brittannië zuidwaarts tot aan het Middellandse Zeegebied. De mediterrane populatie, die vroeger als onderdeel van dezelfde soort werd beschouwd, wordt nu aangenomen dat het de aparte soort Anemonia sulcata is. Hoewel de Noordzee binnen het verspreidingsgebied van de wasroos valt, is de soort in de Nederlandse kustwateren zeldzaam. Tot nu toe zijn er zijn slechts enkele keren individuen waargenomen.
Deze dieren hebben een voorkeur voor plaatsen waar doorgaans veel licht is. De wasroos komt vooral voor in het intergetijdengebied, vooral in poelen vanaf halftij naar beneden, tot op 20 meter diepte in het sublitoraal. Deze soort is veelvuldig aanwezig op de bladeren van zeegras (bijvoorbeeld Zostera marina).
Voortplanting
In tegenstelling tot andere neteldieren, missen anemonen (en andere Anthozoa) het vrijzwemmende medusastadium van de levenscyclus volledig; de poliep produceert eieren en sperma, en de bevruchte eicel (zygote) ontwikkelt zich tot een planula-larve die zich in een later stadium op een harde ondergrond of op grote wieren vastzet om uit te groeien tot een volwassen anemoon. Daarnaast kan de wasroos zichzelf voortplanten door overlangse (longitudinale) deling. Deze ongeslachtelijke vorm van voortplanting gebeurt relatief snel: tussen vijf minuten en twee uur tijd heeft de anemoon nodig om zich in twee nieuwe individuen op te splitsen.

I would appreciate help in getting started in the game with your help.
Ill give you some info about me so you can understand how raw and unmolded this piece of silly putty is.
about 6 months ago I knew nothing but how to download and read mail.
since then I am currently in school working to get my CCNA.
In case you are unfamiliar, the Cisco Certified Networking Associate, but I would never insult your intellegence. Iam also working toward my A+ cert, and am half way done with that.
I have completed the first sem of Cisco and am half way through the second. Right know im working with routers and such. Basicly I would like a point in the right direction, on how to improve myself and have something to offer. I have aspirations in working in network security.
Oh one more thing I will also be going to school to get my MSCE.

Regular readers of this column know I am a huge animal lover. I come by it honestly –– my nana is known to feed every stray in her path, and my mom raised me with at least three pets at a time. My first love was a black-and-white tabby cat named Baby. When Baby died in an accident in 2004, my mom let me pick out a new kitty.
I chose a very tiny, vocal orange tabby and named him BJ. It's been nearly 15 years, and BJ is still with me. Well, he's with us. When my husband and I moved in together in 2014, BJ was part of the package. Gideon says he loved BJ immediately, because he knew he had no other choice. That man can be so perceptive sometimes.
As we've established a home in Carroll County, Gideon and I have enjoyed visiting and supporting all the good work going on at Good Shepherd Humane Society. My job allows me to write stories that help the shelter, which would be incredibly valuable on its own. But it gets better –– through all the stories I've written about the shelter, I've gotten to know the amazing people who work there.
They aren't just good animal lovers; they're great people and kind friends. I'll never forget when I lost a friend in late 2017 and needed a break from all those pesky reminders that my friend isn't here anymore. I thought it would be nice to go pet the cats at the shelter; maybe that would take my mind off the grief for a bit.
When I arrived at the shelter, I saw familiar staff members Sandra and Kathy working on a float for the Eureka Springs Christmas Parade. I told them why I was there, and they each hugged me. They asked me if I'd like to help sort stuffed animals for the float. It was only one week since my friend died. I had been crying for days, but I didn't cry that afternoon.
Instead, I tossed stuffed animals into piles and laughed at Kathy's jokes. I felt useful and comfortable. Everyone at Good Shepherd made me feel so welcome that day, and I will never forget it. If that's how they make a human feel, just imagine how they make the dogs and cats feel.
Good Shepherd is the only no-kill shelter in Carroll County, so they never give up on the animals in their care. The shelter isn't just a waiting room until the animals find a permanent home. It's a home for every animal that stops by, whether that's for a week or a year. I've seen how everyone at the shelter cares for the animals. I've watched the board of directors work diligently to make the shelter sustainable for years to come.
Good things are happening at Good Shepherd, and that was very apparent at the Diamonds & Denim Ball on Saturday night. Gideon and I attended the ball, which was completely sold out. I loved having the chance to catch up with all the friends I've made at Good Shepherd. The first two hours felt like five minutes!
Of course, I loved seeing people come from near and far to raise money for the shelter even more. The shelter is hoping to build new dog kennels, and the ball certainly helped with that goal. If you're an animal lover like me, don't hesitate to donate to the shelter. They need all the help they can get to continue providing a refuge for the homeless dogs and cats in our community.

takara nipaluna
YOUR EXPERIENCE PROVIDER takara nipaluna
takara nipaluna is 100% Aboriginal owned and operated and was launched as part of Ten Days on the Island Festival in 2021.
Nunami is a proud palawa/Warlpiri woman and the owner and operator of takara nipaluna. Nunami means small package in her language, palawa kani. Nunami knows that good things come in small packages. Although she may be small, her passion for culture is strong.
Nunami was selected to represent the Tasmanian Aboriginal Community on a repatriation campaign to Germany to bring back Tasmanian Aboriginal ancestral remains from the 1800's. Being the youngest palawa to ever repatriate remains she was then selected as Young Tasmanian Aboriginal of the year in 2015.
Nunami was also chosen to be a part of the Tasmanian Aboriginal Delegation to represent the Tasmanian Aboriginal Community views about Treaty negotiations that produced the Uluru Statement from the Heart in 2017.
More recently Nunami graduated with a BA in History from the University of Tasmania. From lived experience, Nunami is well aware that our stories have been excluded and hidden from the colonial space that is Australia. All this experience has helped define Nunami's life passion is to teach people about palawa culture. A natural storyteller, she believes the best way to teach culture is through experience.
Nunami has high hopes to expand her business and collaborate with others and bring truth-telling to many more sites in lutruwita, otherwise known as Tasmania. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaCommonCrawl'} | 8,830 |
Today is Dhanteras (a day when Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped for prosperity). The relevance of this day and its mythical allusions can be read in my last years article on the same topic (http://utkarshspeak.blogspot.com/2010/11/dhanteras.html).
But today we will not be repeating the same.
On this day of worshipping wealth, I would like to talk about a symbol that many of us use without knowing the meaning or the implication of the same. Many of us have seen the Chinese three-legged toad, which is a common Feng-shui symbol for money or generation of wealth. Do we know more on this? Here's what you might want to know about it.
The three-legged money toad is known as Chan-Chu in Chinese. It is one of the most popular symbols of wealth and prosperity and found most commonly in households, offices and more so near cash boxes. It is often depicted as a toad, with read bulging eyes and flared nostrils, sitting atop a heap of coins and a single coin in its mouth. The followers of Feng-shui believe that the symbol helps in creating and protection of wealth, besides driving away evil and bringing prosperity.
According to the Chinese myths, the King Money Frog, a mythical king, if seen outsides ones homes on a full moon night, brings good news to the house and this good news could convert into some monetary benefit and thus the association with wealth again. Besides bringing luck and prosperity through wealth, the money frog could also ward away bad-luck which could have been an impediment in wealth creation, again leading to monetary prosperity.
Is there any myth involved in the belief of this? It is important to know that frogs and toads (seen as similar) have been seen as signs of fertility and in many cases as harbingers of rain. In any agrarian society, rains ensure prosperity, which is again associated with wealth.
One of the myths which though is an astronomical myths is associated with the symbol. According to this myth, Ch'ang O, who was the sister of the water spirit married ShenI, who had just got the pill of immortality. However, to use the pill it had to undergo some rituals and so ShenI left for the same. In the absence of her husband, one night Ch'ang O found the pill of immortality and ate it and soon started feeling light and could fly. When ShenI returned and didn't find the pill he asked his wife about it. Fear struck Ch'ang O and she flew out of the window. ShenI chased her with a bow and arrow, but the stong winds stopped ShenI from chasing Ch'ang O who was flying higher and higher. Ch'ang O soon reached a place as white and snow and a luminous cold place and started feeling sick and started vomiting and in that she vomited the upper covering of the pill of immortality, which was soon converted into a rabbit as white as could be! But this made Ch'ang O immortal and made this cold place, the moon, as her abode. The God of Immortality then spoke to ShenI and rewarded him for his hard work by giving him the Palace of Sun and transformed to be sent to the sun. But as the sun does, he travels round the universe and once in a year goes to his wife who was sad and lonely. It is said that ShenI then built a palace for her and from then onwards, on the fifteenth day of every moon, he went to visit her and on this day, the moon shone in its full brilliance! Later when they reached the heavens they were honored and later depictions have shown both as god and goddess, with ShenI holding the moon and Ch'ang O holding the moon. I guess you are still looking for the toad, right? Well the Chinese mythology adds a sequel to this myth by saying that Ch'ang O was later changed into a toad, the outline of which is still visible on the surface of the moon!
Though the above myth is associated with immortality, the same in the earlier times was a sign of achievement and the end of all woes. Achievement of immortality was in a sense the achievement of the greatest of all wealth, akin to godliness, something that only the gods had. The association of immortality of earlier times with prosperity in modern times is not all that unfound, and the association of prosperity with wealth is definitely not unfound by any standards.
So, on this day of Dhanteras, when tradition dictates one to buy gold and silver, the prices of which is trying to kiss Ch'ang O (i.e. the moon), it might be a good idea to buy the Chinese three-legged toad instead! It might just help you to create enough wealth for you to buy the gold or silver next year!
On this day, here's wishing all of you – Happy creation and retention of wealth!
Many of us would have heard about "Beware of the ides of March" which was the warning given to Julius Ceaser and was also the day he was assassinated. According to the Roman calendar 'ides' was generally associated with the 15th of a month and Julius Ceaser was assassinated on 15th of March.
But what is it about the Ides of October?
The Ides of October was the day when a horse was sacrificed in the honour of the Roman god Mars (Roman god of war). This was an elaborate ritual which started with a two-horse chariot race. The horse on the right side of the winning chariot was sacrificed at the end of the race. Different scholars have given different versions of the sacrifice, but we will write about the most commonly available versions.
Some say that the horse was killed by a spear at the altar of the god Mars. Some mention an elaborate ritual – first the tail was cut off and the blood from the tail was allowed to drip on the altar of the god. The head was also cut off from the body and then decorated with ribbons and other such decorative materials and then hoisted on a spear. Some have mentioned that amongst the decorative materials, cakes made out of bread was also used, giving it a harvest ritual, as grains have been integral to many such rituals.
A justification of such a ritual says that it was through the deception of a horse that Troy was won, and this was a ritual punishment meted out to the animal!
This sacrifice is also referred to as 'Equus October', or the October Horse.
Horse sacrifice has been one of the many important sacrifices during the Vedic times and there are many references to Kings conducting Ashwamedha Yagna. In the Vedic times too, the horse running around the kingdoms was sacrificed at the end of the tenure and the run. However, popular mythology has seldom delved in the sacrificial aspects of the Ashwamedha Yagna, except for its running around the different kingdoms who would either accept supremacy of the King conducting the Yagna or wage a war.
This shows the intermingling of cultures and civilizations. Many scholars have said that usage of horses in India was adopted after the Greeks invaded India. The mention of Ashwamedha Yagna during the Vedic times might beg to differ with them. However the similarity of the two events by different names, could lead us to the Indo-European marriage of two very different cultures.
During one of my recent visit to the Northern India, (Faridabad to be precise), I saw a temple which was called "Maharaja Agrasen ka Mandir", the temple of Maharaja Agrasen. Curiosity got the better of me and I decided to visit the temple. It wasn't a very typical temple and there weren't too many people, besides the fact the temple was closed at that time. I saw some people and enquired about Maharaja Agrasen and also asked some people from the nearby area. From the bits and pieces and a few fragments here and there, this is what I got to know about this 'god' who has a temple to himself.
Maharaja Agrasen was a Suryavanshi King (of the solar lineage), who ruled during the Dwapar Yuga, which according to the current times would be approximately more than 5000 years ago. He was the first born of King Ballabha of Pratapnagar. He was supposed to have been married to Princess Madhavi who was a Nagvanshi (the Naaga clan), which brought two very powerful clans of the times together. Madhavi had selected Agrasen in a swayamvar.
Here, there is a myth associated with this aspect of Agarsen. It is said that in the swayamvar, Lord Indra too was present and was infatuated by Madhavi's beauty. But Madhavi's selection of Agrasen, angered Indra and he was so jealous about it that he decided to not to send any rains to Pratapnagar which soon had a famine like situation. King Agrasen then waged a war against Lord Indra and since he was on the right side of Dharma, Indra and his mighty forces were soon vanquished. Indra then sought the help of Narada to mediate and settle the matter amicably. This proclaimed Agrasen as a righteous and a religious ruler who would wage a war against even gods for the welfare of his subjects.
After this, Agrasen decided to propitiate Lord Shiva who was soon pleased by his penance. Lord Shiva then advised him to propitiate Mahalakshmi, who too was pleased with the penance. She appeared and blessed Agrasen and suggested that he give up the role of a King and change his caste to Vaishya, the business community and found a new kingdom and she would bless all his people. King Agrasen, then gave up his Kshatriya-hood and became a Vaishya.
Agrasen was a very compassionate person and the happiness of his subjects was his prime concern. He conducted many yagna's for the well-being of his people and once during the well-known 18 maha-yagna's, during an Ashwamedha Yagna, he saw a horse being pulled to the sacrificial altar and the horse resisting it. He felt very sad seeing the pathetic plight of the animal and decreed that there would be no more animal sacrifices. He became a champion of Ahmisa and was of the opinion that prosperity could not be brought at the cost of death of animals.
He later divided his kingdom amongst his 18 children, and named the 18 gotra's after the gurus of each of his sons. Some of these are Mittal, Bansal, Goyal, Jindal, Tayal, Bindal, amongst others.
Finally the most important aspect of this legendary king, is that the present day Agarwal community trace their origins from Agrasen. N modern day Delhi, one can see Agrasen ki Baoli, which is supposed to have been built during the Mahabharat epic times and later rebuilt by the Agrawal community in memory of their ancestor, Maharaja Agrasen.
This is a classic case of deification of a human being. Here is a person who has a historic reference and modern day people can trace their lineage to him. To lend credence to his importance in the process of deification, there is the classic reference to Lord Indra, which gives him an edge in being worshipped as a god. It is also quite logical to involve Lord Indra, who is a much maligned Puranic deity, but to be on the right side of the dharmic-diplomacy, is also a worshipper of Lord Shiva and Goddess Lakshmi. Also change of the caste is shown as God's desire; otherwise changing of caste is a relatively unknown phenomenon in any of the texts.
All in all an interesting piece of mythology – just goes on to prove the theory that every mythical hero probably was a part of history, once the finery of fantasy is removed from the bare facts of the reality of times.
Thanks to a political party and its usual eye-balls grabbing efforts, "shastra-puja" or weapons-worship on Vijaya Dashami day is being discussed. So what is "shastra-puja" and its relevance if any?
The origins of this can be seen in the epic Mahabharata. According to the epic, when the Pandavas lost in the game of dice with the Kauravas, their cousins, they were supposed to spend twelve years in exile and the thirteenth year was supposed to be in agyantvas – to be spent in total anonymity without being recognized. When the Pandavas entered into the thirteenth year, they hid their weapons in a Shami tree, before disguising and entering kingdom of King Virata. On the day of Vijaya Dashami, and also the end of their agyantvas, they retrieved their weapons from the Shami tree and performed a ritual worship of the weapons. They then, identified themselves as Pandavas and defeated the Kauravas who had attacked King Virata. Since then, it has been a practice for Kings to perform shastra-puja on the day of Vijaya Dashami – which is also the symbol of victory of good over evil.
Over a period of time, this shastra-puja is undertaken by many who deal in weapons and also implements. People in Security agencies, army and other forces and even business men who have heavy plants and machineries perform the puja as a ritual.
How a political party benefits from "shastra-puja" can be anybody's guess, except for a political gain. But thanks to some elements I get my topics to write!
Here's wishing all my readers a very happy Dasshera & Vijaya Dashami!
The eighth day of Navratri is associated with Goddess Bagala – Bagala or Bagalamukhi, or 'crane-faced' is a form of the Mother goddess. Some also interpret the name with bridal face, implying the face which has the power to attract attention, like all brides. The worship of the goddess is generally in the tantric form when opposite behavior is warranted. The worship enables opposite reaction of what is normal, implying that she has the power to turn speech into silence, movement into motionless, power into impotence, etc. It is this reason why she also referred to as "stambha-shakti" the power to stun. Her worship is very ritualistic and a lot of care is undertaken in the rituals, as any error could earn the wrath of the goddess. There are quite a few temples of the goddess and the greatest boon that one can receive on worshipping at the temple of Bagala devi is to have worshipped all the 330 million gods in the Hindu pantheon just by worshipping at her temple. One of the myths associated with the goddess is that once a huge storm waged on the earth threatening to swallow the whole earth. All the gods assembled and prayed to Bagala Ma, who appeared and calmed the storm. Another legend says that the goddess defeated an asura to protect Dharma. She is supposed to have pulled out the tongue of the asura who begged for forgiveness – implying that unwanted speech or discussion is a threat to religion and the goddess does not forgive such people. In the ancient times animals were sacrificed during the ritual worshipping and some say that the practice is followed even now.
The ninth day is associated with Goddess Matangi – Matangi is again a ferocious aspect of the goddess and again a form worshipped in the tantric form. Matangi is the tantric goddess of speech and the knowledge of arts like music, etc. and is thus as the 'Tantric Saraswati'. She is generally worshipped to gain supernatural powers and a victory over enemies. The myths associated with Matangi are very similar to the ones of Sati or Kali, but the details of the myths are not very elaborate. However, different tantric texts also relate many other myths which are replete with sexual undertones (which are not being mentioned here as the same have not been verified by me). Some texts have also compared her to an outcaste, a 'chandala', and thus sometimes she is also referred to as Chandalini. Some say, that she was the daughter of Sage Matanga, who was an outcaste but became a rishi with his penance and thus Goddess Saraswati was born as his daughter, which was goddess Matangi. Different texts have said different things about Matangi, but what is common to all is her ferocious aspect.
The Navratri is the celebration of the Mother Goddess cult in India. It involves the worship of the primordial female energy, the energy which gives birth to new life and generative power. The worship of mother goddess cult can be seen all across the world in different forms.
Egyptians worshipped Mut, Isis and a few others, the Babylonians worshipped Tiamat, and the Sumerians worshipped Innana. The Greeks had the cult of Cybele, besides the worshipping of Gaia and Rhea. Similarly, the Irish, the Nordic and all the major cultures of the world had the concept of a mother goddess cult. So what is behind the cult of Mother Goddess that is so prevalent across the world which has some cultures still following the rituals associated with it?
In all major cultures, creation was either by a single unidentified (or not so distinctly clarified) principle or a male principle with the help of a female principle, but the initiation was by a single dominant force which 'seemed' to be male. But the successive generations came with the help of a female principle for both human beings and other living organism. Even if science had not proven that this union was necessary, this had been assimilated well by the primordial man, and thus emerged the significance of the cult of a goddess who soon took the form of a Mother Goddess. The concept of mother goddess was also similar to the concept of Earth goddess in many cultures, which takes one back to the principle of fertility and the concept of fertility goddesses and rituals associated with it.
The fourth day of the Navratri is associated with Godess Bhuvaneshwari – Bhuvaneshwari is one of the important forms of the Mother Goddess, who is responsible for giving a form and shape to the universe. She gets her name from the words 'bhuvan' meaning universe and 'eswari' meaning the ruler. She is invoked by uttering "Hreem" which is considered to be as powerful as the "Om". She is always depicted as smiling and two of her four hands are always in the blessing form. She is bedecked in gold jewelry and is supposed to be residing in "manidwipam", a land of gold, silver and jewels, which is guarded by powerful gods like Agni, Vayu amongst others. She is a giver of boon, which not only includes material forms, but also knowledge, health and happiness. She thus seems to be the embodiment of later goddesses like Saraswati, Lakshami and even Parvati.
The sixth day of the Navratri is associated with Bhairavi – Bhairavi is another terrifying form of the goddess which sometimes gets confused with the Kali form of the goddess. Bhairavi is also referred to as Baala or Tripurabhairavi and as part of the nine day battle waged by Goddess Durga, when she entered the battle field, the asuras ran away in fear. She however, killed the two fearsome asuras Chanda and Munda and thus is also referred to as Chamundeshwari. Besides the two, she is also supposed to have killed two of the most important asuras - Shumbha and Nishumbha. Bhairavi, is shown on a donkey when angry.
At the end of the day, these are different form of the same Mother Goddess, i.e. Goddess Durga. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,831 |
Please leave your gender stereotypes at the door
July 7, 1999 · by amyyeewrites · in Education, Women & Children. ·
BROOKLINE, MASS. — The students in Brian Poon's social-studies class are engaged in heated discussion about backpacks. Tiny backpacks, to be exact.
"Why are these for girls? What reaction would a boy get if he came to school wearing a tiny backpack?" asks Mr. Poon, a tall, striking figure who is known to leap about the classroom. The students laugh, but consider the question thoughtfully.
"Maybe it's because you can't put anything in them except makeup," says a male student.
"So what are the messages that say tiny backpacks aren't for boys?" Poon presses, deftly connecting the dialogue to Foucault's philosophy of constructed truths, introduced at the start of class.
Anyone looking for a traditional social-studies class is unlikely to find it in Poon's Gender in Society course for seniors at Brookline (Mass.) High School. Sure, academic subjects from biology to philosophy get an airing. But the discussion also delves into a less familiar but key issue in the halls of learning: relations between men and women.
High school has long been a hotbed of conflicting emotions -exacerbated by media images -about physical appearance, acceptable male and female behavior, self-esteem, and sexuality. But over the past decade, such issues have taken a dark turn toward increased incidents of sexual harassment and assault.
In Boston public schools last year, for example, about 30 cases of sexual battery were reported – roughly a 33 percent increase over the previous year. A 1996 study co-authored by Eleanor Linn, director of programs for Educational Opportunity at the University of Michigan, found that 83 percent of girls and 60 percent of boys in Grades 8 through 12 said they had experienced unwanted sexual attention in school.
The problem has reached as high as the US Supreme Court, which ruled this spring that school districts are obligated to protect students from sexual harassment. But forums for structured discussion about gender issues are still limited by everything from time to a reluctance to take them seriously.
To Poon, such an attitude is inexcusable. "In today's culture, young people are inundated with information about how they should be and act…. It is a critical skill to deconstruct these assumptions and arm young people to deal with the pressures…."
One way sexual harassment in schools differs from that in the workplace in that there appears to be no power differential, says Nan Stein, a senior researcher at the Center for Research on Women at Wellesley (Mass.) College, who helped write a gender-issues curriculum. "But," she says firmly, "sexual harassment in schools is what the kids call it."
A former student of Poon's, Caroline Kariyakou, recounts several incidents of sexual harassment or even assault endured by peers. "As much as people would like to ignore it, it happens."
The curriculum for Gender in Society goes beyond the traditional health or women's history approach. Poon draws on biology, philosophy, and history. The class examines gender roles in the media, and one unit is devoted to pop music.
Beyond giggles and squirms
The goal is to confront topics that might normally elicit giggles, or from men, silence: magazine advertisements, the definition of a 'real' man or woman, what constitutes date rape.
Student Mike Rosnach affirms that boys are pressured to discuss gender in certain ways. But, he says, this class makes you "realize all your prejudices."
Indeed, Thea Deluga adds, "The guys in our class are really receptive. They're totally open and you learn a lot from them."
Students say they have become more aware of others' opinions and the need to question social assumptions and media messages. "I've really started paying attention to TV commercials," Mike says.
Breaking with traditions
This is Poon's second year teaching the course. He had to face some gender issues of his own in preparing for it. "I worried about … teaching a traditionally female course … [but] the issue of my gender has never come up as a problem…. I never claim to have secret knowledge. I try to work students to figure out what they think."
Social-studies teacher Polly Attwood, who has also taught the subject, hopes that the issues addressed will filter their way into the school curriculum as a whole.
"The more students are asked to talk about this, the more … students will see it is not as a taboo subject. The more ways we have to discuss these issues, the more we will understand how to build community."
At the end of this day's class, former student Mike Cermak stops in to say hello. He and Poon chat about Mike's first year at Boston University, especially the sports, as Mike is member of the ski and lacrosse teams and Poon is the junior varsity lacrosse coach at Brookline High.
Mike then enthusiastically tells about his Women's Studies course at BU, where he was one of four men in a class of 30 women. He calls his experience with gender studies "totally amazing." Although he says he doesn't agree with everything taught, "I take it so I can learn and develop my own theories."
To Poon, it's a sign his class has achieved its goal of expanding the way kids think about gender in society.

# Class to implement a traditional deck of playing cards.
# Capability to shuffle, deal a card and remember the state of the deck.
# The current version can only deal a single card at a time but future
# versions could conceivably deal hands of specified sizes, deal multiple
# hands to multiple players or perform other specialized tasks to support
# various card games.
# Deck can be shuffled whether or not a card has been dealt from it.
# Cards are dealt from the top of the deck. If a card has already been
# dealt, then it is returned to the bottom of the deck at the time that
# another card is dealt.
#
# The deck is initialized in an organized state.
# To help demonstrate this class, it's data and the shuffling operation,
# the deck is not shuffled as part of initialization. The application is
# allowed the opportunity to display the 'un-shuffled' new deck.

# This closure serves to encapsulate all class data and methods. No indentation
# is added for this standard, large block as a matter of style and to ease editing.
#### Definition of how the data for the deck is stored and translated
# @_deck is defined outside of the general attribute data hash for readability
# then specified via reference within the usual %_attr_data hash.
#
# @_deck is defined via an array of references to anonymous arrays
# of card attributes. As an array, the deck naturally retains its sort order.
# The attributes could have been implemented with anaymous hashes so that they
# could be referred to using nicely-named keys such as: color, suit, card
# but for compactness in the data as well as in the code, we will use an array
# and access via the numerical index/position, albeit through constants in the source.
# We make the code more readable than [0] [1] [2] when using these constants to
# refer to the attribute array indices. In some processing, such as our shuffling of
# the deck, we might also appreciate a slight performance gain with the use of
# an array over a hash. For larger data sets it can be a good performance strategy
# to use arrays with constants in this manner, rather than hashes. In this case
# of our deck of cards, the main benefit is in not having a cluttered initialization.

# new instance of the class (object), initialized with defaults or it can clone
# an existing object by copying all of that objects attributes, possibly tweaking some of
# those attributes. Calling through the class name like this creates a fresh object:
# Class->new( %args_for_new_object )
# Thus new() is considered a class method in that case. Unspecified args defer to defaults.
#
# Calling through an existing object reference as below clones/customizes that object:
# $obj_ref->new( %args_to_customize_cloned_object )
# Thus new() is considered an object method in that scenario.

Lost Contact & Research
Ship Research
Passenger Services from U.K. to Halifax (Nova Scotia)
Passenger Services to Halifax Nova Scotia
Hi everyone, I'm hoping to find out the identity of a vessel that took a U.K. emigrant to Halifax, Nova Scotia approximately six weeks after the Titanic was lost on Sunday 14th April 1912. The emigrant was Annie Jane Day; she was 19 years old and travelling alone. This indicates Annie Jane Day's departure date as, approx. 26th May 1912.
I'm wondering if anyone reading this knows which shipping/passenger lines were operating from U.K. ports to Halifax at this time. Was the service to Halifax, from a particular port, by only one company? That would be helpful.
If this can be ascertained, then any guidance of how to progress this search for the ship and passenger will be most welcome.
I look forward to any suggestions.
Bruce Carson
Clem:
George Warren's White Diamond Steam Ship Company (Warren Line) carried passengers to Halifax at that time and Furness Withy acquired a controlling interest in 1912. Under Furness, successor names were the Warren, Johnston Warren and Furness Warren Lines.
I believe the Anchor Line also sailed to Halifax until World War l.

Annie Jane Day
Clem,
if you have access to microfilm of the London "Times" for that date you could check the ''home sailings'' area in the ''mail and shipping intelligence'' section. That would list ships departing and would give the destination. The National Archives in the UK has a collection of ''outgoing passenger'' do***ents which are currently being digitised and will be online in 2007. If you could identify the vessel then I imagine you could obtain a copy of the passenger list for the ship if you wanted to.
Philip Eagles
Thanks very much for you help Philip, that's a good avenue to explore.

"Personal experiment"
Ueli (l.) and Tenji on the summit of Island Peak
Currently, the four climbers are continuing their training program in the area around Namche Bazaar, the 3,440-meter-high main village of the Khumbu region. They will then return to Europe for four weeks. An unusual form of preparation. "It is a personal experiment of us all," answers David Goettler to my concerns that acclimatization effect could get lost in the meantime. "At home we want to sleep as often as possible as high as possible or to climb. We are almost sure that it will lead to a faster acclimatization when we'll return for our actual expeditions in April. We'll see whether the plan works out."
Hervé's dream
Training for Shishapangma South Face
In spring 2016, David and Ueli had been stopped by bad weather in their attempt to open a new route via the Shishapangma South Face. "The South Face really fascinated me, and I just want to go back there," writes Goettler. "Hopefully we will have better weather this year!" Due to his Everest-Lhotse project, Steck was not available as climbing partner this time, so David has teamed up with Hervé Barmasse. The 39-year-old is a very experienced climber who has made headlines in recent years especially with new routes on his home mountain, the Matterhorn. Hervé has also succeeded spectacular first ascents in the Karakoram and in Patagonia. Barmasse had two major surgeries last year. "He is back in the game," writes David about the Italian, who has so far never stood on top of an eight-thousander. "It remains my dream to climb my first eight-thousander on a new route," Hervé had told me in November 2012. This may not have changed.
Stricter regulations for expeditions on the Tibetan eight-thousanders
The expedition operators in Nepal might have been so shocked that they dropped their pencils. In the "New Regulations for Foreign Expeditions 2019" in Tibet (available to me) it says under point 6: "In order to ensure the healthy and orderly development of mountaineering and minimize the occurrence of mountaineering accidents, mountaineering teams which were organized in Nepal temporarily will not be accepted.
Still no Chinese in the 14-Eight-thousander club
The Central Peak is not the main summit of Shishapangma. Climbers and expedition operators who tackle this eight-thousander in Tibet should know this. The Central Peak is at 8,008 meters. From there, the normal route continues over a ridge to the 19 meter higher main summit at 8,027 meters.
Successful season record on "Fall's Everest" Manaslu
I had a déjà vu. When I saw the pictures of the queue of people who climbed up towards the summit of the 8163-meter-high Manaslu this fall, I winced again. Just like in 2012, when Ralf Dujmovits, Germany's most successful high-altitude mountaineer, photographed the queue of Everest summit candidates on the Lhotse flank.

Q: Efficiently turning tabular data (array of objects) into a square matrix with JavaScript/d3.js I have a programming problem related to transforming data from one form to another.
I have an array of objects representing a table of data that needs to be transformed into a matrix for a visualization. I somehow avoided covering matrix math during my education, so apologies if my terminology is incorrect.
More specifically, I have an array of objects representing formatted data:
var pokes = [
{source: "Harry", target: "Maria", type: "poke"},
{source: "Brin", target: "Serge", type: "poke"},
{source: "Maria", target: "Brin", type: "poke"},
{source: "Serge", target: "Simon", type: "poke"},
{source: "Brin", target: "Serge", type: "poke"}
];
And I need to turn it into a square matrix for use with a chord diagram, e.g.:
var matrix = [
[0, 5, 2, 1, 4],
[7, 0, 8, 4, 7],
[9, 4, 0, 3, 1],
[8, 5, 5, 0, 8],
[6, 3, 9, 2, 0]
];
The length/width of the resulting matrix, n, equals the number of unique individuals in the array (Harry, Serge, etc), and the value in the corresponding cell (x, y) is the number of times person x poked person y. Each object in the pokes array represents one poke (the "type" property doesn't affect the construction of the matrix).
So, for example, the object:
{source: "Brin", target: "Serge", type: "poke"}
would add 1 to the cell that represents (Brin, Serge).
This is my pseudocode method:
Create array, people, containing list of unique people in pokes (both source and target).
Create empty array, matrix.
For each person in people:
Create an array, foo, of size people.length.
For each poke in pokes:
If person == poke.source:
Add 1 to foo[x] where x is the index of poke.target in people.
Push foo into matrix.
I haven't progressed into real code because I am not sure that this method is:
*
*Correct
*Efficient/fast, especially if pokes.length approaches thousands
Any advice would be appreciated; especially if d3.js has a hidden method for creating matrices that I haven't spotted.

Best architecture firms in Spain [2021 update]
Here we present our best architecture firms in Spain list, architectural practices already known worldwide or just emerging.
Spain is recognized throughout the history as having many visionary architects. Probably due to its historical and geographical diversity, Spanish architecture has drawn from a lot of influences. Spanish architecture started to take shape in parallel with other architectures around the Mediterranean and others from Northern Europe. In the late '20s the foundation of GATCPAC in Barcelona marked the first beginning of the Spanish modernist era.
Only the death of Franco and the return of democracy brought a new wave of architectural optimism to Spain in the late 1970s and 1980s. During the '90s Barcelona Olympics and the World's Fair in Seville, further bolstered Spain's reputation on the international stage.
Spanish architecture is experiencing a revolution and Spanish architects like Rafael Moneo, Carlos Ferrater, Ricardo Bofill as well as many others have gained worldwide renown but there are many interesting new comers architecture firms that are taking the stage.
As you can see on the map, the most relevant architecture firms in Spain are located in Barcelona and Madrid, but don't miss some excellent practices around Spain.
Ricardo Bofill Taller de Arquitectura (RBTA)
Amongst the best architecture firms in Spain we cannot avoid to quote the renowned RBTA. Based in Barcelona at the repurposed cement factory La Fábrica, with over fifty years of experience found on architectural sophistication and an innovation-driven international outlook Ricardo Bofill – Taller de Arquitectura is always projected into the future. They create dynamic spaces founded on the centrality of the human scale in its purposes, functions, movement. Through refined technical expertise and a mature cultural sensitivity, the multidisciplinary team of specialists at RBTA develops a liquid vocabulary for the built environment in an ever-changing world. Nomads on a journey to redefine style and space.

Barozzi/Veiga
Barozzi/Veiga was founded in Barcelona by Fabrizio Barozzi and Alberto Veiga in 2004. The practice has since worked internationally in public and private projects and its work has received several prestigious distinctions. Its body of work includes cultural, educational and residential buildings as well as civic projects. The practice is consciously international in its outlook, with approximately 25 people from different countries, working from a 19th century apartment in the centre of Barcelona. In 2015 the project for the Szczecin Philharmonic received the prestigious Mies van der Rohe Award for European Architecture and this year, the recently finished Fine art Museum in Chur, Switzerland, has been awarded with the RIBA Award for International Excellence.

Luis Vidal + Architects
Luis Vidal + Architects is a recognized international practice that provides innovative and high-quality solutions thanks to its leading vision of user-centered architecture. Since its founding in 2004, it has opened offices in Spain, the United Kingdom, the Dominican Republic, Chile and the United States, and has designed more than 200 projects of varying scales (urban planning, building and industrial design).

YA-12 Soviet Artillery Tractor
Fred Wilms
Company: MiniArt - Website: Visit Site
Provided by: MRC - Website: Visit Site
History: The YA-12 light artillery tractors were developed by NATI Designers and launched at the Yaroslavskiy Avtomobilniy Zavod YaAZ-Yaroslav Automobile Plant. In 1943, the United States supplied a large quantity of the U.S.-made GMC-4-71 four cylinder, two stroke, 110 horsepower engines under lend-lease contract. Production started in 1943, and within 12 months a total of 285 units were built. In 1945, production of YA-11s and 12s reached 1,270.
Items in the Box: The model is made from injection molded plastic, gray in color. The plans were made up of a book form, printed on both sides. Clear molded plastic windows, photo etch, and a decal sheet were supplied.
Construction: Started with the chassis buildup, running gear, engine and drive train. Next came the cab and its interior hardware, seats, dashboard, controls, and doors. The last unit assembled was the cargo carrier, seats, doors, canvas roof, and roof supports. I deviated on the roof slightly, using brass wire instead of the plastic supports supplied by the kit. The plastic supports are very fragile and broke easily. Lastly, the tracks (treads) were assembled to the chassis. Also used were the photo etched parts supplied. Care must be taken when assembling the photo etched parts so as not to lose the finely detailed parts. The final assembly was adding the cab roof and the cargo carrier.
Finish and detail: Used ModelMaster Russian green, rust, and silver, and Floquil engine black. The decals went on well. Final finish with Testors Dulcote.
Conclusion: The kit went together well. The kit buildup is for the more experienced modeler, as there are many tiny and fragile parts. I would like to thank IPMS, Mini Art, and Model Rectifier Corporation for allowing me to review and build this kit. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaCommonCrawl'} | 8,843 |

The verdant alpine landscapes will refresh you as you explore and are able to take photos of birds such as the Eurasian Treecreeper, Eurasian Nuthatch, the Blue & White Flycatcher, and the Narcissus Flycatcher. All these birds spend the summer inhabiting the area, and with carefully executed expeditions, you can capture photographic evidence of all these birds.
Hodgson's Hawk-Eagle will not be excluded from the menagerie of avian life that inhabit the green canopy of Okutainai. Their wingspans reach up to 175 cm. They are truly remarkable to behold, and you may have your photo op as they patrol the forest looking for their next prey.
There is one more remarkable and almost magical bird that the local residents call 'The Phantom'. Although not an aggressive raptor, the Ruddy Kingfisher's bright plumage set it apart from the rest of its winged brethren. JDS cannot promise that you will see this bird due to its rarity, but if anyone can help capture this phantom bird on film, it will be Japan Dreamscapes.
Okutainai has a very limited window of opportunity during the summer, so contact us now to make your reservation. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,844 |

When Savannah was born on June 14, 2003 she was nearly three months premature and weighed one pound, 11 ounces. She spent the first three months of her life in the NICU and dealt with many complications.
Savannah eventually came home from the hospital, but unfortunately this was not the only challenge she would have to endure. After experiencing fevers and a scary bout of seizures, Savannah was diagnosed with a very rare liver cancer called hepatoblastoma. This cancer is so rare that only about 100 children in the whole world are diagnosed with hepatoblastoma each year.
Over the next year, Savannah received three different kinds of chemotherapy, and every three weeks she would spend 10 consecutive days in inpatient care at Penn State Children's Hospital. At one point, she weighed only 30 pounds and survived on just four cans of PediaSure a day.
But we're happy to share that Savannah has now been in remission for three years and is a happy, healthy thirteen-year-old. She even started a Mini-THON® at her school, E.R. Martin, to help other kids on their childhood cancer journey.
Thanks to the generosity of people like you, Savannah's family never received a bill for her treatment. Four Diamonds covered the cost of her cancer care, including hearing aids Savannah needed that insurance wouldn't pay for. Every day, Savannah's family is inspired by the thousands of supporters who are working to conquer childhood cancer. Thank you for all you do!

A lightly used, fully working NTP server that has been tested to confirm that it works as it should. It requires a 12V outdoor antenna which is not included (I usually have some suitable AT575 types listed separately). No printed manual is included but a copy may be downloaded here if required.
Note that no antenna or rack ears are included. If you want either or both added to the package then feel free to email me and I can edit the listing accordingly.
This is a GPS Master Clock receiver that has RS-232 and Ethernet interfaces. Input voltage is universal 100-240 V AC.
A comparison of the different Symmetricom products is available here.
Full details may be obtained from the Product Manual.
The receiver locks onto a GPS signal when the antenna has a reasonable view of the sky. The status indicator then turns to flashing green - indicating that time has been successfully acquired with no problems detected.
In summary, if you want a GPS Master Clock unit to acquire the correct time and to provide an accurate NTP time reference to client devices over a LAN or WAN then will work for you out of the box.
The unit has been confirmed to operate correctly via the serial console port and the loaded firmware is the latest posted version (ie. Version 8.4). The passwords are set at their default values (operator:mercury).
The NTS-200 is a high-performance Network Time Protocol (NTP) server that reports time with extreme accuracy, using the Global Positioning System (GPS) as a synchronization source.
The NTS-200 supports versions 2 and higher of the NTP, RFC-1305, as well as the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP), RFC-2030. In addition, the NTS responds to TIME protocol requests, RFC-868.
The main feature of the NTS web interface is its ability to perform setup and control operations from a remote location, using the Internet or TCP/IP LAN. The protocol used is either Telnet or HTTP. The NTS has an RJ-45 Ethernet connector on its NET Port, providing NTP and IP access, and a 9-pin D serial connector for serial input/output. | {'redpajama_set_name': 'RedPajamaC4'} | 8,846 |
Fu vicepresidente del Cile dal 6 settembre al 18 settembre 1910 e dal 23 dicembre 1925 al 9 aprile 1927.
Laureato in Giurisprudenza nel 1889, sostenne il presidente José Manuel Balmaceda durante la guerra civile del 1891 e fu tesoriere del governo liberale. Caduto Balmaceda, Figueroa visse nell'ombra per diversi anni, poi entrò in politica come deputato.
Vicepresidente della Camera dei deputati e due volte ministro della Giustizia, nel maggio 1910 fu nominato ministro dell'Interno, e come membro più anziano del governo, divenne presidente provvisorio della Repubblica dopo la morte del presidente Pedro Montt Montt (16 agosto 1910) e del vicepresidente Elías Fernández Albano (6 settembre 1910).
Figueroa occupò la carica per il tempo necessario alla celebrazione del centenario della proclamazione dell'indipendenza del Cile dalla Spagna e all'elezione di un nuovo presidente (il liberale Ramón Barros Luco).
Ambasciatore del Cile in Spagna e in Argentina, Figueroa tornò in Cile, fu nominato Conservador de Bienes Raíces e in tale veste fece parte del Tribunale d'Onore che decise il risultato delle elezioni presidenziali del 1920 assegnando la vittoria al candidato liberale Arturo Alessandri Palma.
Nel 1925, in seguito alla crisi che aveva portato alla caduta di Alessandri Palma, fu scelto per la Presidenza della Repubblica come candidato di unità nazionale di tutti i partiti. Insediatosi il 23 dicembre 1925, per il suo carattere debole si lasciò influenzare talmente dal ministro dell'Interno, il colonnello Carlos Ibáñez del Campo, da farsi esautorare lentamente fino alle dimissioni (10 maggio 1927).
Nel 1928, come ambasciatore in Perù, si occupò della soluzione della controversia di Tacna e Arica, risalente alla Guerra del Pacifico (1879-1884). Fu poi presidente del Banco Central.
